I used to like Professor Stefan Buczacki - but you never hear of him these days. he was an expert on all kinds of fungi.

I preferred Geoff Hamilton.

Never really liked Titty, I thought he seemed like a bit of a bully and Monty is just plain scary looking.

That made me LOL, LD thanks.

In John Sargent's autobiography he related how when Julia Somerville swopped channels with the boring Martin Lewis, it was known as swopping Tit for Tat.


A good read entitled "Give me ten seconds"

No
I read it whilst on holiday in a farmhouse in rural Normandy.
Our bedroom was on the top floor and at night tucked up in bed we looked up through the skylight windows at the beautifully clear sky and the greatest show on EArth.
