Bloomin' 'eck. That means I was doing a Top Twenty show on the day you were born, Mr Sput.

Excellent record to be number one because of the way it finishes. You can back-time it straight into the news.

I was very considerate to you and assume this very bulletin featured reports of a brilliant blue baby being born.

Wow, that's alliterative.

I had a charity record in aid of the people who died on the Herald of Free Enterprise.

It's not brilliant.
