I've heard people say that about JRJ's appearence in the last of the Doctor movies, Doctor in Trouble, in 1970, but I don't think he's too bad in it. Does anyone know if illness was the reason for his part in this being so brief?

I'm glad to hear it went well. I too would have like to have been there, but was on Mothers Day duties!

The assembled company was treated to snippets and teasers of anecdotes from the book throughout a post-lunch Q&A session which was graced by the presence of the wonderful Muriel Pavlow, who had unveiled a blue plaque to JRJ to open the ceremonies earlier in the day.

The book itself looks like it is going to be a cracking read ! Congratulations James, and here's to the next tome...




Smudge

Mate! Thanks very much indeed for your kind words. I was indeed "bricking it", although it all went well in the end. It was really good to meet you at long last. And thanks for helping out in the Q&A!
