If he plays at our place in April, I think we should all sing “Old Shep” every time he gets the ball………Oh, and to show how authentic and reliable Wikipedia is, it says that Harry Worley “plays for Hertfordshire giants Stevenage” ………Yeah, right!
"In the British TV sitcom Only Fools and Horses, "Old Shep" is Del Boy's favourite song. In the 1982 Christmas special "Diamonds Are for Heather," Del gets a local mariachi band to sing "Old Shep." At the end of the episode, after being dumped by Heather, he pays some Christmas carol singers to sing the song to cheer himself up. "

1982 Christmas Special. Harry Worley was born in November 1988!

"Diesel" from "Thomas and Friends" was voiced by a Canadian-born/UK resident actor/voice artist called Kerry Shale; he also voices eight of the characters for the US series ......

I did sort of suggest it was tosh, but it was fun tosh .........

(Cheers Dennis!)
