LONDON TONIGHT TONIGHT: Weds 30th May

Afternoon,

We won't mention the weather today. Firstly, because what more is there to say. Secondly, because swearing isn't big or clever.

Anyway, there are more exciting things to talk about... such as a 'Eurythmic' - just the one mind, but still, if you're of a certain age (which at least one of this evening's presenters is) 'Annie' and 'Dave' had quite an impact back in the 80's. Well, tonight, BOTH presenters are rather looking forward to meeting 'Dave' ('Mr Stewart' to his tailor) when he comes in to the studio to talk about looking for 'Annie Mk II'... to perform with him... live on stage... do you follow?... it could be you. At least one of the team has been overheard ringing up the local hairdresser, asking about the cost of dyeing their hair orange...

Before we go that far (down the programme running-order) we're going to be reporting on the opening of the public inquiry into the expansion of Stansted. Enjoying your cheap flights? Want to save the planet? Expansion a necessity of life? Want that expansion in the form of a runway at the end of your garden? Take two bottles into the shower? (Actually, that last one's nothing to do with it, but you get the picture.) Piers Hopkirk has the day's story - which includes an appeal from the good people of Greenland, who sort of see the 'global-warming threat' as a little more 'immediate' than some of us.

Meanwhile Liz Wickham's being playing fast and loose at London's newest, biggest casino. Yes, we know the Dome (sorry, O2) lost the supercasino contract, but while the eyes of the capital looked to Greenwich, a huge casino was being knocked together in the West End. You snooze in London, you lose in London.

Now, if you were to 'win big' on the craps tables (it's a game, rather than a comment on the quality of the furniture) you might want to move house, or boat. A rather ENORMOUS liner will soon be berthing on the Thames offering the sort of permanent, waterside, acclamation only the filthy rich can dream of. Still, nice to have a look at what the filthy reach dream of - and that's what Damien Steward will be doing.

So - see you at six o'clock. Let's face it - it's that or doing the washing up...

Ben & Romilly.
