He was in one of the films, if memory serves. - "Invasion: 2150AD"?

Quite enjoyed it tonight - and the only thing I've watched today. Listened to Wogan this morning, then switched to "Fighting Talk" on Radio 5 Live and stayed there instead - had no intention of listening to Beckham.

Mark Lamarr was good with his annual alternative Christmas music show.

I caught the tail end of Mark's show and was sorry I had not listened to more as what I did hear, before Bob Dylan, was very good, IMHO.

Cant say I watched much tv this year. Was forced to watch a bit of EastEnders & Emmerdale and I say the To The Manor Born Special which was quite good, if lacking any real surprises (or a decent plot TBH)

Other than that I heard very little radio either.

Maybe you're mixing him up with Bernard Cribbins!

In 2003 Bernard Gribbins played Wally Bannister in the long running soap Coronation Street. In 2007 he will appear as Wilf Mott in the Doctor Who Christmas special, "Voyage Of The Damned", a character who will reappear in the 2008 season

Nah Mark, you're wrong there. I'm certain it was Bernard Cribbins

I don't care who was in it, I thought the special was great fun and a real Christmas treat (although, saying that, Kylie Minogue was hopeless).
