    @Fairygirl did you think that second Popmaster contestant was cheating?  
    He said Green Pitney?  You wouldn’t say that if you knew the answer ... only if someone had written it down for you. ... and he took ages to answer ... think Mr Bruce cottoned on ... he was distinctly cool towards him after that.

    I think they're one of the few bands from that era that have dated really badly. 
    I dislike Page for his totally insincere comments when Bert Jansch died. Pity he hadn't been so fulsome in his praise when he was alive, and could have credited him with his arrangements which he then pinched.
    Anyway - Ken's playing Moonlight Serenade, so all's well with my world  :)

    Am I the only person who wishes there was a 10 second buzzer to end the "hellos" at the end??

    Sorry @Dovefromabove - we crossed there in our posts.
    I thought that too. Glad he lost - he was a right ar**hole. The Gene Pitney one was the real giveaway eh?
    I agree @Hostafan1. In fact - ten seconds would be too long. We used to laugh at work when people rabbited on thanking the world and his wife. Youngest always laughs when I tell her if someone's just said 'everyone who knows me'  :D

    Is there any duller radio than hearing a list of names. esp when they say , my children Bob and Sue. Would Bob and Sue not realise without being reminded?

    I remember one who mentioned every member of their family and friends right at the start, and when they got to the bit where they get asked if they want to say hello to anyone, I thought 'surely not - there's no one left', they repeated the whole lot again! I'm surprised Ken didn't do that 'oh sorry, you're breaking up' thing as soon as they started, while signalling one of the elves to cut him off  :D

    If it were me I’d just say ‘anyone who’s not ashamed to know me, given the complete a**e Ive just made of myself’.  😉

    @Dovefromabove :D

    It's when they get to point of thanking the postman and the milkman, you really wonder... ;)
