Tonight's Showwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww..............

We lost last week's Thursday Show, but tonight, there's no snow, so we have a Show.

8pm - midnight, Channel 865, & it's simulcasted on Sky Sports 4 from 10pm. Sky Sports 4? Eh? I guess that was Sky Sports Extra hitherto.

The Tourney is a £12,000 Guaranteed Bounty Hunter, entry cost is £20 + £2.

A quite splendid guest, too, who's been on before - the football legend that is Ron "Chopper" Harris. I was barely a teenager when Ron made his Chelsea debut, & he went on to play for them for 18 years, including in what many consider to be the greatest Cup-Final of all time, in 1970 vs Leeds United, who were the Big Bully Boys in those days before their spectacular fall from grace under Mr Ridsdale & Co. In his later career, post-Chelsea, Ron played for Brentford, too, so he did eventually reach the very top.

So, share a journey with us tonight. The Driver will, be D P Fitzgerald, (he who semi-Finalled in Saturdays SPT!) & I shall be in the Co-Pilot's seat, in what is quite a rare pairing.

Nothing is perfect, of course, & we shall be speaking to tonight's PTP-er. Yup, Orford. I can't get away from him, sigh.

    Has it anything to do with a taxi, blue jumper or maybe a flower pot?

    WD to all In the SPT, especially D.P who I was rooting for all the way. One of the gallery pictures of him was classic - talk about excited as he's looking down at his chips!  Thanks for the great updates throughout really enjoyed It.
