Oh dear lord, not another series of THAT. Maybe they'll throw some money at the screen this time, eh?

Lets not forget Russ, that the series was a ratings success, beating fool us most weeks.

With any luck they will realise that some aspects could be tweaked a little to improve but, as has been mentioned, lay people seem to like the show as is and it had good viewing figures.

Good God! Is Rolf Harris still alive? He must be ancient.

Rolf has a huge london gig commin up in the near future.
When he's not working, he is a champion of local politics too. He is often found in our local debating chamber, observing, and atends many public meetings to put his views across.. and they are always teh popular opinion.
I just love the man.. Alwyne, his wife is an utterly delightfull character too, as is his daughter.

Living where i do has its plus points. Rolf being local is definatly one of them. :)

I saw Rolf walking down the High Street end of Queen Street in Maidenhead some years ago. Sprightly, was the word that came to mind.

I used to work on York Road. I left on this very day in 2003! Most people drank in The Jack of Both Sides, The Hand and Flowers, or The Bear when I was down there. I used to drink in The Custom House occasionally and learn polari from the old queens.

custom house.. Doesnt exist any more.... I was booked to do Karaoke there millennium evening.. Because of ca, and their rules, i had to turn it down. ( and over 3 grand.... CASH ) Hand and flowers have an open mike session every week. I mean to go down there and do a spot . the bears had a refit, and its lost most of its atmosphere.
