I just posted this on the blog...

My friend Martin Hood sent me this message...

I was listening to an episode of 'Dad Made Me Laugh' on Derek Nimmo
in which his son Piers Nimmo is interviewed by Sally Magnusson. When
discussing Derek's participation in Just A Minute, Piers mentioned your
web site: He said:

"There is a guy in the world who has actually typed up every single
Just A Minute Program in scripted format and sometimes on occasion I put
my name or his name into Google on the Internet and it comes up and he
(Derek) loved my name..."



Now I have always said my primary reason for building the site has been
for my own amusement.

But... it really gives me a very warm feeling to think Derek's son gets
some pleasure from the site, helping him to remember how much his Dad
cared for him.

I'm sure Piers has plenty of ways to remember Derek. But it really moves
me to think looking at his words on my website helps in some small way.

Piers, if you ever read this, I want you to know that Derek's many fans
thank you and your family for sharing him with us. Because he created so
much pleasure. On Just A Minute and other shows.

And just as you'll always remember your Dad, he will always be
remembered by people all around the world as a lovable, funny, warm,
witty man. Perhaps most of all through Just A Minute.




Has anyone else heard this show and can tell us about anything else
Piers said? Would be a lovely addition to our links...
