The two entries that most stick with me there are...<BR/><BR/>* Hats - Everything you wanted to know about millinery in this useful guide.<BR/><BR/>* Paul Foot appeared to introduce a film he had made at a holiday camp, only to be told it had not been edited together yet. When he returned a week later to finally show it, the film was truly awful.Steve Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10870981671564008402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4802567794111313334.post-9377323040710658372008-06-04T13:52:00.000+01:002008-06-04T13:52:00.000+01:00I got yer fan page right here:http://www.tvradiobi...I got yer fan page right here:<BR/><BR/>http://www.tvradiobits.co.uk/digital/rda.htm<BR/><BR/>Cosmos Transmutazoid was ace!Tim Worthingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05135653945070797299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4802567794111313334.post-75011557600881696482008-06-03T19:31:00.000+01:002008-06-03T19:31:00.000+01:00Yes!

Funnily enough this was the very first thing I watched on digital TV, when I had ONDigital for three days then took it back as I could only get the Beeb channels.<BR/><BR/>The RDA was a brilliant series, though, and there's bugger all about it on the web. There used to be a fansite but it's long gone, and there isn't even a Wikipedia page. It was such a remarkable series, it was basically a telly show about a telly show.<BR/><BR/>John Gordillo now seems to work very much behind the scenes, I know he's co-written and directed Reginald D Hunter's shows, but as you can see here he was a brilliant presenter and should have been on telly more. I do know that when they were considering a permanenent replacement for Angus on HIGNFY, before they decided to keep rotating hosts, Alexander Armstrong said it was a toss-up between him and John, who would have been great. Alas, he's never even done one show.Steve Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10870981671564008402noreply@blogger.com
