My wife's uncle was sent to Canada, (and I found his name on that link earlier in this thread), and he ended up as a tanker driver with Shell, and did OK for himself

This is one I'll be skipping. I really have zero interest in what Linekar's up to. He's already on TV too much as it is.

I'm kind of with you there. I'm not enjoying all this showing off of his new house. If it's anything like the rented one, it'll be singularly tasteless

There seems to be a careful avoidance of saying the surname Hoare so far.

This is a bit boring! Not sure if it's a boring subject (poaching) or is it Gary Linekar

This one is leaving me flat - quite uninteresting so far

So calling Lineker a Pratt isn't completely wrong, noticed he laughed about his dodgy brother.
(Lineker's Bar etc.)

Goodness! Is he a footballer?

I liked the photo of his real teeth.

I can see that prison from my window. Lineker-less, of course...

I'm watching in HD, highly dull. (like the series so far apart from Minnie Driver, who came across well.)

This series has been very dull so far, I wonder if the BBC is trying to kill the programme off?

And everyone says Michael Owen is boring on BT sports. Lineker makes him look like Graham Norton.

Minnie Driver was very good. And Una wasn't too bad either.

So far watching Nick Park bending bits of Wallace and Gromit plasticine and explaining it ,is a preferable option.

God, I'm off now. This is terrible. He is totally boring. Surprised they've let it run or is it the Beeb trying to get their money's worth out of him?

Yes, I picked up those years ago but apparently he was regarded as untouchable. They'd dish the dirt on everybody else but not him.

I hear he has a lot to thank Mr Clifford, and well paid lawyers for ...
