Yeah I think Phil's trying to follow in Fred's roots...

see what I did there..? yeah...anyway.

On another related note, I wonder what exactly Ian Axton, Debbie Thrower, Iain McBride and Gareth Evans are all doing now? I just have an image in my mind of them all holding up placards outside the Meridian studios! Laughing

I was talking about him playing the butler on Caesar's late night show on Invicta, I never listened to Invicta in the day as I was at school.


No No No Barry Bethal NEVER played the butler on Glen's breakfast show during those halcyon days of Invicta, the Butler was played by one of the sales guys, someone called Paul Harvey. He was also was the voice of Major Chilston-Bottom.
Phil Hornby is still the political correspondent for Meridian (albeit with an awful hair makeover - he's gone ginger!!)

I heard Iain McBride went to work for Kent Police doing public relations or something of that nature. Ian Axton had his own media company set up before he even joined Meridian, he obviously does not harbour too much resentment- as he appeared on the show after his sacking when they were focusing on the heavy handed police approach at the Kingsnorth demonstration, he talked about how he was treated there etc.

I am sure there used to be an Iain McBride at Calendar in the 80s - I presume it's the same one?

Anyone else hear Caddy Lee Preston swearing like a soldier on South East Today just now? I'm not sure what she said because it was all bleeped. Maybe she was swearing at the poor framing that meant the graphics were almost covering part of her face. All I know is its going to be f**king sunny in the South East.

I can't believe Kaddy could do such a thing , it goes against her ginger , swattie , freckly and spotty ' Head ' girl image that she puts out so much of the time . Shocked

I can't check this out as the main show doesn't go on the net . Confused

A few of the usual crew aren't around this week , hazeler , evans , the smiths are absent. Is there some bug going around ( Impetigo , oral thrush - that sort of thing ) Smile

Thats it. Although on second hearing, maybe its someone making a phone call.

I couldn't get the show to play all the way through so Kaddy's indiscretions will remain speculative for me.

However I did see the report on artist Zoe Murphy who had her chest out on Margate beach . Reporter Lynda Hardy was there having a close look especially paying attention to her well fitted drawers.

Cool

Click on the preferences option & play it in the Windows Media Player, it is far easier to jump to where you want than the RealPlayer option.
