The Madeley Bestiary

Excuse me if I keep burping. I’m feeling a mite bilious this morning. I think it must be something I ate in the last couple of days. However, I intend to crack on and have something posted for you before I scoot off to the studios to film this afternoon’s show.

I’ve also been delayed by working late into the evening on a new feature for my blog. You might have noticed the new ‘Madeley Bestiary’ in the column to your right. I’ll be adding to this excellent resource over the coming days, so both new and old readers alike will be able to reference the dramatis personae of my life. What’s more, if you print them out, they’ll form a set of cards that can be used to play a wide range of interesting games or used as a replacement tarot deck. Turn over two Ronnie Corbetts in a row and you’ll be in for ten years of good luck.

What if I turn over two Stephen Frys in a row?

Ax, you'll have to try it to see. I can't make promises put there may well be a sudden rush of air, a slight explosion, and the words, 'ah, 'tis I, Fry, magically manifesting my goodness from the ether'.

Ax I was just about to ask the same thing :)

In which case, Bertas, I'll give you the same answer. Of course, I'm hoping this will just encourage people to keep coming back just to see the look on Alan Titchmarsh's face.
