Oh no not Vernon Kay

Brucie is strictly come dancing. Although some of his jokes do make me groan. I'm willing to put up with them because the man is fab and makes me feel all warm.

This rocket blows up before it leaves the launchpad unfortunately. Many knighted entertainers are relatively unknown outside of the UK. E.g. Sir Michael Parkinson, Sir Trevor McDonald, Sir David Jason, Sir Terry Wogan. To be honest, I don't see why entertainers should be knighted for entertaining citizens of other countries anyway, they should be rewarded for entertaining the Queen's subjects.
