My dear old thing!

To cap it off, wouldn't it be delightful if one of the rounds was "Pigeons" or "Double-Decker Buses"?

Blofeld. Blowers, for those who don't know him, is a genuine eccentric, and has fame around the world. In New Zealand for example, he joined the TV cricket commentary team here for many years. His style of commentary, is , shall we say, unique.

join the Just A Minute family. He is appearing on one of the two shows in Edinburgh to be recorded tomorrow. Paul Merton and Sue Perkins are the regulars for the two shows.

Still, Henry could well be making one of those shows that end up as a real classic. We shall see.
