After going AWOL for yrs after losing the Pedigree Chum gig, the legandary former" Blue Peter" Hardman returned with a bang in a live commentating duet with Clare Balding at Crufts.The lantern jawed lothario(just ask Val!) brought the hosue down after Balding got caught short and decided to dash accross the main "show mat" to take a slash in the dog toilet.
Not one to miss a joke "Poonani" Pete bellowed out a live "show dog commentary" as a puce faced Balders dashed accross the mat desperatly trying not to p1ss herself. "now here's the entry for the older dogs,former gun dog,a little jaded but good head carriage only let down by matted fur and needing a good trim around the flange"the Kick Start legend intoned to a roaring crowd.
Needless to say Balders was raging as she made her way back,covered in p1ss and spitting feathers, threatening gawd knows what on old Pete,it was only when a senior bod whispered into her shell-like that there was VERY GOOD reason why Muhammed Ali avoided the Blue Peter sofa and opted for Parkies brown draylon i back in the 70's.
Balding spent the rest of the day in near silence munching on the Winalot freebie nibbles.
Welcome back Peter purves

74 yrs old now according to wiki,i thought he'd died a few yrs back but you can't keep these old 70's hardmen down,who can forget what he did to Simon Groome upon finding him sat on his chair at BP rehearsals,a yelping tearful blood and tooth splatered Groome had to be led hysterically away by his dog Goldie after nothing but a few choice words from the BP heart throb

He'd need hands of stone if he connected with Balding's jaw

Interesting you should mention "hands of stone" Crisp as THAT is the exact Sobriquet in which he was bestowed with after going ten full rounds on the cobbles with the legendary "hands of stone" himself Roberto Duran,Duran made the mistake of pinching Valerie Singletons ar'se while glaring at Purves saying "what you staring out you floppy haired ponce"
Ten vicious "all in no holds barred" rounds later the bloodied and battered world champ pleased "no mas" and decided to shake on it after all. Cross the smooth talking Kick start assasian and famed swordsman at your peril |

Purves feared throughout the 'business'.At the BBC Television Centre Valerie Singleton told Rolf Harris(who was there to record 'Top of the Pops')that Purves had thrown a hissy fit when forced to wear a floral shirt and tie combo on Blue Peter.In fact Purves had his shirts hand made in Carnaby Street and when Harris mentioned something about his mothers curtains Purves attacked.
Going in with his trademark size twelve to the kneecap Purves was shocked when Harris didn't go down but Harris was there to sing his latest hit 'Jake the Peg'and Purves had kicked his prosthetic leg.Unfortunately for Harris he jumped backwards and trod on a model of Tracy Island that Valerie had constructed for Peter's Birthday present.Purves was incandescent and proceeded to toss the antipodean artist around like a wobble board. Harris never forgot the beating and years later was stealing the show on Parky with his amusing anecdotes when a miffed Billy Connolly(whilst Parky was introducing Zsa Zsa Gabor)whispered in his ear that Purves was looking for him in the Green Room reducing Rolf to a gibbering wreck and allowing Parky to continue with two guests who nobody could understand. |

Purves notable by his absence this year. Balding looking VERY pleased with herself stroking some woman's sheltie.

Wasn't Peter purves having a fling with the 70s female weather forecaster Barbara Edwards?,

Purves is THERE! Looking relaxed and very Roger Moore on that sofa, but with a very Daniel Craig attitude.

What a marvellous description, screaming, and I haven't even seen him.

Purves surely favourite now to take over the reins at Top Gear.
Clarkson may not like it, but as Purves commented: "If that c^nt wants a fracas, I'll show him a f^ckin' fracas." |

Alan Carr under Police protection following fears that Purves may take umbrage at not being consulted before Carr was hired for a gig on his manor.

Great stuff.Although if I was a pedantic git coops, I could point out that Tracy Island was 1992, long after Pete and Val had left  |

Oh hang on, I forgot about Robert 'Ask The Family' Robinson. Many a young child was orphaned after their parents incorrectly identified a close-up picture of a hanging basket.
