Strangely I much prefer them when they're on telly together, but when they are on their own presenting progs they're just not as good in my opinion.

Having sat next to the short one ex-NCL once before, I can feel for you mumblemumble. I would not have fancied the trio for a whole flight either - in fact, I think I may have been inclined to try opening the emergency exit door and taken an early landing on my own.

And Lord Coe on the 113 LHR to JFK today. Think he was in J, but only noticed him when u was getting off as I was in J on UD. He was sporting a trendy black satchel with Olympic rings on it. Bit of a giveaway? But, busy couple of months ahead for Lord Coe.

The Documentary that Jeezer did on Major Robert Henry Cain VC was fantastic, also loved Meet the neighbours.I enjoyed May's build a Spitfire but that is about it.Everything Hammond has done is low rent drivel.

I haven't seen the first one, the second wasn't that bad (although again it wasn't anything like as good as TG is) I would have liked to have seen the third.

No seriously a while back both the Duchess of York and Emma Watson, and shortly after Sir Tom Jones. I'm not saying what flights, but it was a delight to hear Sir Tom whistling in the cabin (or was it the A/C? ) - no really it was a delight.

Well to update on the Mark Wahlberg situation - within 20 mins of take-off he was fast asleep and didn't wake up until 40 mins before landing. So thankfully we had a peaceful cabin. But, of course, he was chatting on his phone the second we turned off the runway - and the cabin crew said nothing.
But, other than that, a top crew today in a NF cabin. ^
Oh - and wasn't Wahlberg in The Perfect Storm and Shooter?

Monday morning on BA175 from Heathrow to JFK, I spotted Piers Morgan and someone I now know to be the bespectacled presenter of the Gadget Show. Imagine my surprise when Gadget Show guy turned out to be even more irritating than Piers Morgan. I think he had been pestering BA crew for a free upgrade to business class because not long after the flight took off he vacated his World Traveller Plus seat (I had a prime view from World Traveller!). He seemed a bit "look at me, I'm on the telly!", and a bit annoying.

Hmmm...I was sat behind the Duchess of York and her two daughters not too long ago in club Europe down to nce.
They were standing at the exit as we left the plane at nce,waiting for special services,so we walked by them smiling.
They were whisked down a side corridor,presumably to a waiting car and did not do passport control.
