There are also a high percentage of Americans who believe i - God will intervene directly in human affairs soon. ii - The US government is concealing hard evidence of earth's contact with space aliens. Both ideas which cast the plans of their country to remain the most powerful force on the planet into doubt.

Hilary Lister recently accepted a special award for her achievement. 'Keep encouraging her' I say, 'It's only a matter of time.....'

CSNY planning to be side by side on stage at the annual Bridge School benefit gig hosted and organised by Neil to raise money for a school he founded. He has two sons by two different mothers both with disabilities caused by cerebral palsy. The odds against it are massive and the school helps kids with such problems.

Since it wouldn't happen at once there would be a point. However, EVERYONE would cover it cos none of them would live long enough to be sued for infringement of copyright.

Valerie Singleton is 68 and returned to the show in 2000 for the opening of a time capsule she helped to plant. She also makes regular - if unwanted - appearances on the kind of web sites that out gay people. Valerie and - I think - Joan Armatrading are/were an item. I'm sure someone out there knows more than I do about it. Lesley Judd is 58 and still works in conference organisation. She left the show to look after her husband who had MS. Neither likely to cop it soon.

So, like, how's he doin' with the new kidney?

Aye well, this meandering little debate BEGS THE QUESTION whether you've owt of any value to add about Al Lewis.

The entire planet would cop it with the notable exception of Andrea de Cesaris who has survived every DL since the first. I started a similar thread to this a few weeks back. The thread copped it, quickly.

Harvester: You've just labelled a substantial chunk of humanity - hundreds of millions of fans, players and those with a general interest - as morons enslaved to a pointless activity. You planning on reconsidering that 'football is shite' statement?

All of this begs the question if you asked Al Lewis his date of birth would he still know for sure these days?

Wondered if Albert Hoffman ever dropped his own creation and had a trip where he imagined he was amongst fifty people on a list accessed by the whole world who were expected to die within 12 months.

What puzzles me is she's a known drama queen. Self-centred over-indulged and over-rated and now she's losing the plot - bigtime. Why oh why hasn't some camera crew rolled up at her door and given us the reality show we so richly deserve?

Just a thought, if hymn writers get crap money and have bad breath, possibly due to poor diets from the poverty associated with their calling, do you think their wives get mad and shout: It's hymn or me! I'll get me coat.

Harvester of Souls: I think you're right. Shipman on Countdown would have been a corker possibly with Myra Hindley doling out the letters in place of that over-rated bag of bones Vorderman.

Footy fan: his schooldays were largely untroubled because the Peregrines, Eustaces, Ruperts and Ebeneezer's people the public school took most of the stick.

Now down to six stone and forsaking the alternative therapies in Paris to head home to mum in Oz. This ain't looking good. If the writing is more firmly on the wall over the next couple of months we might have us a tasty young morsel to drop in amongst the vast acreage of wrinkles that make up most of the top fifty.

I doubt either of the above will happen. Fergie is one of those who seem unable to give up the job. The likes of Rupert Murdoch would probably shrivel up and die in an instant if they had to stop work. I can't see the pressure killing him if he's survived decades of it already. I mean, Bobby Robson is alive and well years after cancer and he managed in the Premiership into his seventies. He'll simply fade away a bit, take some senior management job eventually and hang around Old Trafford well into his bus pass years.

Yes you do, it's a one word name and it's your mother's maiden name. Assuming you have/had a mother and she has/had a name.

Countdown needs dragging into the 21st Century. I think they missed a trick because they never considered Jade Goodey or Paul Gascoigne as hosts.

Mortician: Not being an avid follower of Costner's career I don't get it. Any chance you might post a link to enlighten us?

He'd definitely have been on the way out if he'd had to sit there and listen to Jack Straw's speech. Probably for heckling alongside 82 year old Walter Wolfgang. He didn't lead the party with the idea that it would come to its present state of being a bunch of surrogate tories.

I was indeed referring to the great singer Ronnie Biggs. What that post is doing here I don't know. I'd either had one too many beers or the post fell through a black hole and came out on this thread. The second one, obviously.

Bradley Pitt Pathetic, I'll stick to the day job.

I'd happily inherit the whole stinking cesspool. As a West Cumbrian I have an affinity with such an environment.

His breath stank because the royalties from hymn writing are so poor he's likely reduced to eating catfood. He and his ilk reckon on inheriting the earth though so he'd probably pity the likes of us.
