I liked Clive James remember that interview with the Bee Gees ......when they walked out on him... lol

I thought the same.
It was Clive Anderson.

He is your interpreter

I also act as his online carer too.

Unfortunately he only works well under close supervision and as I can`t be there 24 hrs a day for him, he sometimes slips up. ( usually in the Brexit thread )

Sad to hear of the passing of Clive James, a man I cribbed so much of my style from down the years. He also wrote the second greatest book review of all time.

To be a really lousy writer takes energy. The average novelist remains unread not because he is bad but because he is flat. On the evidence of Princess Daisy, Judith Krantz deserves her high place in the best-seller lists. This is the second time she has been up there. The first time was . . .

I hear he's been lurking in a cupboard in the Everton boardroom, waiting to pounce.

Gary Rhodes gone to the big kitchen in the sky

RIP

Met him once in his restaurant in London (Business Expenses of course). He was nice enough to come out to our table and talk to us. He asked if we had any questions for him and I recall some absolute gonk that was with us asked"how do you cook the perfect omelette?" - here we are with a master chef and you ask a question Siri can answer...... could still put this under "things that make me fume" - anyway he seemed a very patient and pleasant man, sorry to hear his timer went off.

...sad news, legendary English cricketer, Bob Willis, has died aged 70. If I remember rightly, he changed his middle name to his musical hero Bob Dylan.
