    Seen and Done it all
    Oct 20 2022
    Our wonderful Government.....you couldn't make it up......I haven't got a clue what is going on and neither have they. I am enjoying the women's rugby league.......great win against France....and the England men's team were brilliant.....then we have the football with Liverpool beating Man City followed by fans throwing stuff at Klopp and him getting a red card on the touchline.............the game needs sorting ... it is slowly getting out of hand.................... stupidity is also creeping into the junior game with parents attacking the referee for giving a red card etc to one of their kids.....it's a football match...that's all....mind you one town has cancelled certain games for the rest of the season because of low life behaviour....which is one answer.... I watched the TV Awards.....what a load of rubbish.....I had to laugh at the award for the best presenter with Bradley Walsh looking confident as he presents more programmes than anyone in history.......and guess who won it for the 21st consecutive time....yes...Ant and Dec.....Bradley's face was a treat......TV doesn't get much worse. Then we have our weekly dose of Strictly Come Dancing in which I do enjoy watching the skills of the pro dancers but they always have to alter things...WHY.....now we have two blokes dancing with each other and two women dancing with each other....which is not good....PLUS we now have to be subjected to sob stories from contestants which have nothing do with the contest....the format was perfect as it was. I would like to feature the Diana Dors song this week...."I've Sen and Done it All

  • Bradley Walsh for Prime Minister

    Bradley Walsh for Prime Minister
    Oct 11 2022
    I find it very strange referring to our new king as King Charles ....and to hear the National anthem as God Save The King......we haven't seen a lot of him up to now but I'm sure he will find his feet.....but it's a tough act to follow. Liverpool has been chosen to host the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest in place of Ukraine.....so that should bring a few quid into the city. Ken Bruce on Radio 2 has featured Brian Blessed as his guest and he picks his favourite records each day through the week.....what an interesting bloke.....apart from his amazing acting career he has climbed Everest amongst many other adventures....I remember him starting out in Z Cars back in the day. I also watched a documentary soon Diana Dors which was fascinating......I wrote a song for her, which she recorded, when I was signed to a London record company back in the 70s which I have only recently heard for the first time.....watching this documentary was quite emotional as I actually spoke to her on the phone. There is a new series coming on the T.V. called "The Larkins"....staring guess who...Bradley Walsh.....so he is now on The Chase every day...plus Blankety Blank...plus Law and Order....plus Breaking Dad (with his son)....plus Coronation Street....not to mention Dr.Who....plus hosting the Palladium...plus a string of past quiz shows.....wont be long before it's Sir Bradders. Just when you though that Brad's diary must be full out he comes with an album of old classics.....he's not a bad singer so I thought he deserves a bit of publicity as we don't see much of him....so here is a song off his album. "Get Happy."...by Bradley Walsh and The Bradettes

    The Power of the Media

    On the political front I'm afraid I have totally lost my way so you have the opportunity to voice your opinion so over to you........ We haven't heard much more about the rocket which is to take off for the moon....has it gone yet? Not forgetting the other thing the boffins have sent up which successfully changed the direction of an asteroid which is good so now we are safe should one actually threaten the earth as one did millions of years ago................what this lot costs doesn't bare thinking about....but I'm sure the poverty stricken and starving folk in the world are delighted with the "success" I would like to wish Mark Owen ...from the one man band Take That.....good luck with his latest come back.....I think. the lad is somewhat misguided with his long hair and earring etc......I'm sure he is a nice chap but there is a time to call it a day. Winter is here so we are inundated with quiz shows with the same old formats....what is annoying is the presenter always asks the same question to the contestant "what will you do with the money if you win?".....the contestant then explains how he is going to take his family on a luxury holiday etc then two minutes later he's out of the game with no money.....point being? HE'S BACK!! Graham Norton with his weekly selection of guests who are there purely to promote their latest ventures......I watched the first one last week.....the guests included David Tennant and Jamie Lee Curtis....who came on (possibly after a few wines) and tried to unsuccessfully take over the show as they all tried to talk over each other....with Graham guffawing along with it all...I decided out of interest to watch it to the end.....only to be subjected to Robbie Williams with his latest record.......time to switch off. Then we have the Sunday night Strictly Come Dancing results from Saturday.....and Robbie is only on again!!.........I know he is very popular and has sold many records but I can't stand him. I would like to remember an old friend of mine who worked on Radio City called Norman Thomas....I did several jingles for his programme...this one was for his daily competition whereby you had to guess what he had in his hand after being given various clues.....it was very popular and hilarious.....it was a short jingle but this one was the 12 inch version.....a great guy and sad loss.
