Look what the cat dragged in!

I'm glad you're carrying on - I was worried today's would be the last one.

I think Mayo did the Radio 1 premiere, though I might be mistaken. I doubt Ball/Greening would have wanted it for the breakfast show.

Following the example of his predecessor in the mid-morning slot, who did the same with the Pet Shop Boys' version of Go West.

Selina Scott was surely heading for relegation within a matter of months. Likewise Ben Curiosity.

The suggestion of parity between Bruno Brookes, Adam Faith and Nick Kamen is quite something.

And it continued with series five, ditching block capitals for mixed-case, before an enforced rejigging in the sixth and final series that at least meant Dulcie returned to the top tier.

It's a legacy of when the county was more industrialised and factories would shut down for two weeks at the start of July to give workers a chance to go on holiday when prices were cheaper. Schools did likewise. We always had our family summer holiday in the first week of July.

The county prided itself on being different from the rest of the UK! We broke up at the end of June and went back in late August, sometimes *before* the bank holiday.

Because it's the best one.

They better release a 40th anniversary edition of the soundtrack this year. It's what Jimmy Greaves would have wanted.
