    I used to watch it with my daughter years ago there was Torode and the greengrocer chap. We used to call them the pigs. I used to shut my eyes before the forks reached their mouths.😐

    I saw a poll yesterday in which Labour have a very slight lead over the Tories now, but most of the Tory losses have gone to the Greens.  As an erstwhile member of the Labour party my vote will probably be Green next time.  They came a very close second in the local elections for our ward and I think they have the best chance over Labour. What Labour needs to do is not stand candidates in seats where the Greens (or Lib Dems) have a good chance of winning.  A coalition of the more liberal parties is what it will take to get this corrupt shower out.  But I suspect that won't happen.

    I'm  'helping'  my husband to mug up for a pub mastermind on Sam Peckinpah films. I have assured him that there will be a question involving Bob Dylan . Never having seen any SP film, I'm at a disadvantage.
    Can anyone help with a few questions for revision?

    I'm looking to get rid of this boxset if you've got time to watch and take notes...?

    The greengrocer chap is Gregg Wallace.  I switch over if I see him on any programme.  I don't know if he's deaf but he shouts all the time.
