Think it was browser – I got photo only in IE and all fine in Firefox.

Josie – sorry, can you see it now? It seems a handful of people have had problems: may be a browser issue? Simon Groom got away with all sorts, bless him. I was very much the Sarah Greene/Peter Duncan/Simon Groom era. Oh, how your heart did sink whenever the phrase ‘my parent’s farm’ was uttered…

Rarg – I had no idea Sundin was Tik-Tok. Truly you are a man to have nearby in the event of a pub quiz. (It is a great film, though! There are simply not enough heroic chickens in the movies these days.)

I thought Simon Groom lasted for the best part of a decade? Maybe it seemed like it…

No, hang on, you’re confusing him with Michael Sundin who definitely wasn’t fired for being gay. Oh no.

Incidentally, Michael Sundin played Tik-Tok in Return To Oz. Awesome film.

Do you remember Simon Groom on Blue Peter? He was sacked after one series for too many unscripted comments, such as this one http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=lSO3-jKoRBQ

I remember that Noseybonk and I hated it. Erk, takes me right back! And Mr Bennet the caretaker was a bit scary.

Susie, have you been to Paris by any chance? And do you know why the blog post is just a picture with no text or comments?

I dunno, what I’ve seen of In the Night Garden is pretty spooky.

Incidentally, Sophie Trellis-Boxface was not the reason darling Janet was sacked from Blue Peter. Sophie was already born by then. It was Janet’s fling with a married bloke which resulted in Sophie’s younger half-sibling which did it. Sophie is blameless (and rhomboid). Janet was gorgeous, true, but obviously something of a sleeparound, which makes her naughty. And that makes her doubly phwoarsome!!
