My Hero's TOM HANKS, so cool and funny on Jonathon Ross on Friday as was DIZZY RASCAL, they are both bright intelligent and articulate men. Don't underestimate Dizzy, he is so much more than his image.
I also watched a wonderful interview with Ian Hislop this weekend (09th May 2009) I was impressed by him, his intellect and in many ways a shy and self effacing person. I have seen him lecture on Victorian History, he was superb and I believe he is under used on TV. More power to him.
I am a huge fan of both Stephen Fry, Julian Cleary and Tony Robinson.
I put brains, common sense, humour, compassion, intellect and a sense of justice above any other male virtue....others are just eye candy.
If you are watching the current Robin Hood series on BBC 1 then the protrayal of King John (John Lackland) appears from what I have read to be reasonably accurate.
Please Read... Eleanor of Aquitaine by Marion Mead to learn of the back ground behind Robin Hood....Hers is quite a story, a Queen we should know more about.
The first King of all of England was Aethelstan ruling 925-940 A loss to our children is the reluctance to teach real English History. It may not be pretty but it sets the stage for everything that comes afterwards. Other countries are proud of the heritage, we are selective...which is a failing.
