Wordls busiest train station (tokyo) C5 looks interesting.
Can't BELIEVE they are allowed to push people on the trains like that. |

Portillo's railway trips are great viewing.

Talking about railway programmes I watched one presented by Chris Tarrant. I thought he's gone downhill since Millionaire.
I found out He suffered a stroke, 72 years of age he looks older than that. Must have taken a lot out of him. |

I like these programmes as well, Portillo does a good job in this series.

Saw him on tell. He was in the crowd at the chelsea game last night. |
|
By:
that's 'our mo'. Oh noooooo, mo will now press his Platinum button and I'll be gone for good.Hope you are well and winning JC, mo.  |
|
By:
well and winning? I can't buy a win, everything I touch turns to sh1t. I was just looking at my recent betting losses and the world has never seen such a list of horrifying negative numbers since the germans reviewed the casualty figures after Stalingrad.

Sorry to hear that JC, as Tommy Doc would say......"it's always dark before it turns completely black".
Seriously, It can only get better . |

Perivale!! The poor girl. Shows wot a dreadful father you are!!! How could you do that to her
all the best. And there's you living out in swampland. Not too many natives around you there. |

I have been travelling between the Midlands and London since August, caught up with family and loads of old friends, I'm offski, GN and GL. |

I watched it...and I liked it Mr Eboue
Michael Portillo very colourful...I like seeing him. The Canadian railways, the Canadian Pacific,very much like the United States railway the Union Pacific, drove West across the country, from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Interesting he said all the stations are seven miles apart. This distance allowed farmers to get their wheat to the Railway Station and get back home again in one day. They only had horses of course. As in the United States the native dwelling Indians suffered and lost their land and way of life. The price of European progress |

Yet another great BBC production. Excellent series.
|
|
By:
Superb series. Portillo an excellent 'guide'.
|
|
By:
the series ie very good and portilo has a human being is ok , its only when he becomes a tory again like on this week i cant stand the bell
|
|
By:
Some interesting items on it but I cringe every time he turns up in another silly costume. I would love to hear the views of the Canadians who have had to humour him. Like 90% of BBC documentaries these days, it would be greatly improved if we didn't have the "celebrity" presenter as the central attraction. Give me just a voice over every time.
|
|
By:
De rigueur to have some usp these days if you are a presenter.
Antiques roadshow you have to drive round in an old sports car. Idiot on Coast with his brolly. Portillo's pastel jacket and trousers. That Lucy bint can't stop wearing period costume. Sarah Beeney and her norks. |

Quite a few years ago I took the Rocky Mountaineer from Vancouver to Calgary and Judith came on board to interview people for the travel show she was fronting at the time. Chatted with her for a few minutes and found her charming, bubbly and completely down to earth. She didn't do the two day trip, she was helicoptered in as the train pulled over to let a massive train carrying timber to pass and spent about three hours on board.

Actually made money on the footy tonight. Obviously boxingthefoxes wishes for good fortune work, and I need to cut off his foot and carry it with me as a good luck charm!

Glad to hear that JC, unfortunately I need both feet, call me selfish but there it is. I could send you a papier mache model, but obviously that would only work with paper money betting,
