Sorry this is a bit late but we had a big meeting in the newsroom today, during which we had to ingest a whole workflow of concepts designed to maximise the efficiency of the new hubs, all of which will be devoid of clutter as we explore our new adjacencies: I personally think that is rude but more in hope than expectation!
Then we had another meeting to try to and figure out what it all meant....
You know, Jose Mourinho just shouldn't have a yorkshire terrier. I don't mean this particular dog which may or may not have the right passport, visa and or certification: he just shouldn't have that breed. Jose is a wolf-hound or Setter, or St. Bernard, or Briard, or a Pyrenean Mountain Dog kind of guy. Anyway, full details of the tiff he had with the Met (who only have Alsatisans) at 6.
By the way, Ladbrokes say the dog is 100-1 against to appear at the FA Cup Final at the weekend in the Chelsea dug-out, and 500-1 against to interrupt the game! In a ManU shirt? 10-1 ON!!!!!
Simon is still causing trouble in New York: that is what Simon does, it's only the location that changes. Anyway:
"Green is the colour, environment's the theme:
why are all those lights on? It really is obscene!"
If you read that back, it is poetry: it also gives you a clue as to why you will want to see and hear Simon Harris of London vs Mike Bloomberg of NY.
Damien Steward will also explain why the one thing the Crown Estate is not, is Crown. It boasts some of the most wonderful buildings in London and some of the real dross but there is a fascinating story as to who it belongs to now and why.
Anyone who is anyone in film is in Cannes so that is where you will find Tamzin too. But don't leap on the Eurostar or head for an airport! Stay with us and we will transport you to the delights of the South of France, all things cinematographic and la belle Tamzin - live at 6. C'est very bon indeed.
The French might eat them but we celebrate them as wonderous and glorious creatures, that noble of bloodstock, the horse. In 1923, one made a rather fine fourth official too, so we are profiling Dobbins in dubbin, as the Blues take on the Reds at Wembley this weekend. Great breaking news: the souvenir shop won't be ready - isn't that a result!
See you at 6: workflow permitting, ingest our efforts at a convenient TV hub -
Alastair and Katie
