7pm Sunday, ITV! That means I won't be watching it. I don't like Alistar McGowans, I don't like Dead Ringers - so why would I like this? I might watch 5 minutes so I don't break my boycott.<P>the_dr

Fatboy: it's a confused rumor. It is almost certain that Steve Penk will do the breakfast show, moving straight to the no1 job from his Afternoon show at Capital. John Culshaw was Penk's sidekick for many years on his radio show, until he moved to Moyleses show. While with Penk, Culshaw came up with his Shaggy impression (one of the Capital calls are in the sound vault) and he also released a CD of prank calls. In all the newspapers today, they said Penk was famous for doing a prank call on Blair, but infact it was Culshaw who did the call. This is where the confusion might have been started.<P>the_dr

yeah he did it as william hague (didnt he?) an blair caught him out because hague always calls him "prime minster" instead of tony or whatever.

i hope so anyway. i heard a cd of the call in my common room once (along with the shaggy one - which everyone enjoyed) and it sounded very much like the culshark impression, if you remember his impression of t.blair from that thing where they interviewed the main political candidates on newsbeat.

monkey i know you were in a state last night but don't you think that blair impressions will sound the same because they are impressions of the same person?<P>so if culshark did the call, why did penk take the praise?

Because Penks a prick and it was his show, so he got credit. Anyway, I thought Penk was busy doing TV's Unfunniest TV Show 67 to be doing the brekkie show.<P>the_dr
