    Rob, if you read this, I met you at Kensington Palace dinner party for The Prince's Trust last year. I was one of the young ambassadors waiting to be greeted to Prince Charles, you approached me and was super friendly and helped cool my nerves, we were chatting and the conversation got cut. Meeting you in that way meant so much to and I really wanted to get a photo with you but couldn't find you again. I just want to thank you for introducing yourself to me and listening to my story, meant the world!

    Thank you so much Rob for inviting Dawn to join you on your podcast. I love her, she is so funny. I have just finished watching the box set of The Vicar of Dibley for about the tenth time! I felt the need, in these crazy times, to watch something that made me laugh, but had that warm sort of feeling as well, and T V of D filled that need. Merry Christmas Rob.!

    American here. French and Saunders became legends to me when I saw their spoof of Ingmar Bergman's films. A professor screened that episode of F&H for a TV theory class, and I was that *sshole in the room howling with laughter at all the jokes. What a brilliant body of work those two made. Can't wait to see them in the new Christie adaptation. As for Rob, he's pretty good too.
