Well they certainly don't write tunes like that anymore. I had to cheat as I had no idea, and could safely say I would never have got it!

Oh well, if nobody else is going to say it, I'll go for Bernard Cribbins.

Which retired MP was once asked (and accepted) an offer to present an award at the British Reggae Awards, after revealing that he loves reggae music on Have I Got News For You?

david mellor? he was laughable

Cardinal Sin · Post by **Cardinal Sin** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 2:34 pm

Nope, not as cringeworthy as Mellor.

Clue: You certainly wouldn't call him a Europhile.
