      Nooooo! Much as I enjoyed this, the Shuttleworth world has its own history with his two wives, his agent, Joan, Peter etc. and all the events involving all the characters. I know Count Arthur's fans would say the same about his but John's is so delicately appointed having taken years of layering and nuancing!!
      Still, this encounter was fun....not least cos you can tell they're good mates off stage.

      Count Arthur Strong: Arthur & John Shuttleworth 0704am 12.7.23 it' be a weird mike leigh type skit without as many laughs... i think my sister dated john's son... hahahaha.... young kid on bon tempi gets a reprimand form his dad and induced much laughter from a neighbour... there you go.

      BBC shows that don't get shown on the BBC anymore but Netflix deems it popular enough to buy it in?
      The BBC are parasites living off the backs of UK taxpayers. Let's not forget that the TV licence is just a tax by another name. A tax to watch your TV with no option to leave.
