Marr

I think this site has led the way in being critical of Andrew Marr over the years, from the embarrassing time when he pretended to be his children's pet guinea pig, the arrogant and silly questioning of Gordon Brown, and of course the thing we're not allowed to mention.

Having said that I am enjoying his TV series on British history, which I saw for the first time tonight. I'm alarmed at his appearance though.

My name is Bond, Snuggles Bond

After having read suspiciously early favourable reviews, and suspiciously unfavourable reviews after it had come out, I did not have high hopes for James Bond. But in fact it was rather good - albeit it half an hour too long. The only thing that spoilt it for me was very occasionally I thought Daniel Craig looked and sounded like Andrew Marr. This is obviously offputting. Worse, clearly, is that no-one else thinks this, therefore I might be seeing some odd pyschological effect of my Marr obsession.

On the issue of celebrities, the girlfriend had a dream on Monday that she was asked to show Sophia Loren and Kirk Douglas the inside of an English pub, as the had never seen one before. Apparently they were delighted.
