  1. Good question, maybe he declined the invitation. Instead of an honours list wouldn't it be good to have a list of those who declined. An anti honours list if you like.
     
  2. Wasn't convinced by the cook fella Hollywood, all he could was giggle and pour praise on everyone. Surprised the camer man didn't get some!
     
  3. ^ exactly.. signed the petition years ago and despite thousands of signatures it's made no difference. I expect they'll award something when they hear he's ill - similar happened to Charlie Chaplin.
     
  4. Yet James Corden gets an OBE! Just doesn't figure.

  6. Good program. I thought Paul Hollywoods Panigale was amazing the way it kept morphing from an 1199S to an 1199R and then back again!.:Wacky:
