I haven't been on the telly for about six years and the radio for five. I am very much what some people might call a 'has been'. But to quote Shakespeare, “Better to be a has been than a never was.” I still have tiny bits of I'm A Celebrity magic dust in my hair and every now and then I give my head a wobble and get really sweet gigs. One of them happened a couple of weeks ago when Chris Wilkins invited me to host a Q&A at his ZZAP!64 event in Kenilworth. I've written before about the lovely vibe at these meets.

Loads of middle-aged neurodivergent men all trying not to make eye contact. Most of them are bald while at 52 I have a very fine head of hair and can stride through the rooms like a king with a full mane. I always enjoy going to retro days and I dig almost all of the chats I have with people... except the guy who just wanted to letch about Daisy Donovan. Not cool man.
This time I was invited to interview Andy Davidson and Stuart Cook – two programming heroes from the good ol' days. Stuart was responsible for Chopper Commander, Circus Circus and loads more. Really lovely chap and fun to chat with.
