So The big news is...I have been left out of the picture again! After missing out on the role of James Bond by a hares Whisker I accidentally being missed of the 100 hottest men list (due to the fact that I would ahve made the other 99 totally jealous) I t seems that I have failed to make the shortlist for the new Countdown Presenter. Ever since Des decided that he couldn't be arsed to travel to Leeds one week in four to shoot the show.
According to the news, the biggest (literally) possibility was Eamon Holmes- but he was far to busy to do it. So the shortlist now encludes Stephen Fry, Alan Titchmars and Giles Brandreth. How can Giles do it and be in dictionary corner as well. Still that giles is a potty mouth as this clip shows.
But they are really missing an opportunity to get some great comedy value out of the show. Why not ask Jade Goody to host it.
Carol: "The letters are P O S T E R I O R. What have you got?"
Jade: "I've got a one letter word. I. But I dunno how to spell it."
Or maybe Pete from big brother
Pete: "I've got a six letter word - MTTMTT"
Carol: Is that a word?
Pete: "It's me doing the beat box. M-T-T-M-T-T"
Carol:"It's not in the Websters English dictionary"
Pete: "Its in the Wan!ers English dictionary!"
Still perhaps it's just as well that I don't do it. I know they like a little bit of sex appeal for all the old ladies, but I think I may be just a little too much. The post wouldn't be able to cope with all the fan mail and knickers I'd be sent
