Thanks for the heads up. I'll be watching that if he doesn't make me cringe with his so called humour.

He's not in the 1st two episodes. But I tracked down a running order without dates from the production company website, press release, and if they stick to that running order he'll be on in episode 9.
I make that 16th Dec 7pm. If the regular slot is Fridays at 7pm. With a repeat on Sunday afternoon. But it might change if the schedulers switch that running order.
This week its not on Friday at all. And the series starts on Sunday at 6.50pm due to Rugby.

Rossi and Rhino were on Talksport radio this afternoon (Hawksbee and Jacobs). Only heard a few snippets as working, but what I did hear seemed to be about the tour and setlists.
Rossi mentioned that football isn't really his thing though his wife gets very excited when the England team is playing a match. He said that she gets so into it all that he sometimes has to leave the room!

Especially as he said that expectations are always high at the start of a tournament, but things usually go wrong except for the Lionesses of course in the summer. A surprise what with Eileen being American. Rossi said that he did get taken to see Crystal Palace play at Selhurst Park as a youngster. The same thing happened to John Coghlan and he got taken to see Crystal Palace play when John was a youngster. Seems it put them both off football for life! Oh dear, poor Palace...I have a connection with Palace and a soft spot for that team. I'm fairly sure Rossi did go at least once with one of his boys to see Dave Watson play at Southampton back in the very early 80s. Rossi used to invite Dave to his home studio as possibly Dave fancied himself as a singer or musician. Francis probably talked too much but presumably not about football! |

I distinctly remember him shouting "Eagles" from the stage during EOTR, the wristband colours give it away. |

A bit of a surprise this one but Francis is in an episode of the BBC's Celebrity Antiques Road Trip on Thursday the 8th of December at 7PM on BBC 2 and is competing against Linda Nolan.
Don't know if i will watch it but I thought I would mention it for those who might.

It was mentioned somewhere else on here a few weeks back. I think I've seen the programme once. If it's the same one, two people (or two groups of people) are given a pot of money and are asked to make a profit by buying up antiques and selling them on at an auction. Or something. I wouldn't ordinarily tune in. It's all a bit daytime TV-ish for me. It may depend on the World Cup  |

Just watched it. Francis was doing his 'comic' routines a bit, but on the whole it was okay.
But when he went into a model train museum he said: "I'm nostalgic." W@nker.

I watched it earlier too, thought Francis came over quite well, thought he was going to buy something green, nearly did, but not quite in the end. |
