Re: Jack De Manio
He presented the Today programme on radio 4
Isn't google great? :D |
Re: Jack De Manio
Being a person who doesn't think she's ever listened to the today program on radio 4 I think he must have done something on TV too because the name certainly sounds familiar but from the dim and distant past.
Maybe I should have a google too |
Re: Jack De Manio
I used to listen to Jack de Manio on the radio. He was a law unto himself, didn't much care if his opinion wasn't the "party line", and he was always giving the time wrong on the clock. :D I don't remember him ever being on TV but I may be wrong.

Maybe my parents had him on the radio then when I lived with them.

Bit of a different ball game there, Margaret. Please excuse feeble pun, Di Maggio having been a baseball player. :p Oh yes, Googling's quite a hobby these days. :D |
