    What, you want us to nominate you for an interview on his show, Eddie? I mean, I know we're well connected, but this is a call too far!

    well, I didn't want to assume. But failing a guest spot...someone somewhere must be recording it...

    WHY????

    He never was a particularly good actor, he's not an engaging person in real life (as far as I can tell) and as for his singing....... :o[

    He can self-deprecate reasonably well but other than that - beam me up, Scotty!

    Ohhhhhhh

    Why did you do that!? I found myself getting strangely involved with the Judge Judy preview clip...

    Right, Fifi, that's IT. I'm phoning the moderators. Or I would if I had a number for them. Damn.

    Oh, Eddie, not much chance of appearing, I fear, he only does the 'hottest names in Hollywood', and we wouldn't want you to go there.

    Permatan, luminous, far-too-even teeth, size zero [that's for the laydeez. Ed] oh, OK, ridiculous muscles... Nooooooooooo!

    Mind you, it sounds chilly there. Big Sis's link also says that it premieres [that's pre-meeeerrzz. Ed] at 10/9c. That's a bit chilly for the time of year in LA, isn't it? Though warm enough for here. About 4 degrees. I think.

    Eddie - that stuff you've been drinking that makes you think this is worth watching/recording/trying to blag a guest spot.

    LOOK AT THE BOTTLE AGAIN!

    Somewhere it is bound to say "For external use only."

    I'm with Feefs on this one. I feel slightly damaged by the fact that I ever got dragged into this whole escapade ;o)

    I wouldn't put anything past him. He appeared here didn't he? Now that's what I call desperation. Maybe he lost all his "credits" in the stock market. I wonder if he bids for airline tickes on Price Line dot com. He was not a very convincing villain on the original Columbo series.

    According to that BBC link, George Takei is now "the I'm A Celebrity star".

    I would have thought that even to those who watch that sick, barbaric programme, he would still be better known as "the Star Trek star" or to youngsters, "the Heroes star" or to others, "political activist...".

    It's sad when the BBC plays up to the lowest-common-denominator image that some people have of it (see current Glass Box).

    MA II (12):

    *Everyone* played a not-very-convincing-villain in Columbo. I think I was in it myself at one point.

    (7): Put your dummy back in the pram, Sir Tedward. Just because we disagree about Oor Wullie Shatner doesn't mean you have to call in the heavies!

    And I promise, if I get a whiff of a tape of that show, I'll be the first to reach for the Glade Extra-Strong...

    Last time I mentioned this man's name (after I'd heard that story on the World Service about him not being invited to a colleague's wedding) I got moderated. So now I'm not telling you ANYTHING else about him! Whatever I know, (or find out...) The man is too dangerous to talk about. Beware!

    SSC (13): I heard a rumour that a certain Timmy Mallet was on the show - and annoying everyone by being both relentlessly silly and relentlessly optimistic...

    Wonder if he's hosted a round or two of a certain word association game yet...then again, presumably he's had to be divorced from his prop, so it might be difficult to score...
