For me it's the new series called "Lionel Stander's time in Rougham".
Lionel Stander never meant to end up in Rougham. One wrong turn off the A14, a curiously chatty partridge perched on a signpost, and suddenly he was renting a cottage next to the old barley mill with a thatched roof and a ghost named Gerald. Most mornings, he'd ramble to the village shop for milk, getting sidetracked by Donald the ostrich who refused to let him pass without discussing geopolitics. Evenings were spent at "The Confused Cockerel", where Lionel regaled the locals with tales of Hollywood, occasionally confusing James Cagney with Dave from the Bury kebab van. |

Only 16 degrees here on Depden Green - the reason being is that Nigel Havers has installed a huge air-conditioning machine on the Green, and thanks to much help from Don Warrington and Jim Dale, it's blasting out cold air. |

Precisely. He also uses that to avoid a repeat of Lesley Judd and Valerie Singleton camping out on his front lawn. |

It would be so, so amusing if everyone going to the concert had misread the advertisement and had booked to see Shearer instead. Imagine their surprise when the former Southampton, Blackburn and Newcastle striker appeared on stage running around with his right arm saluting the crowd. |

Very unlucky indeed. I was however more fortunate. My £5 each-way on "Clive", a very lovely Musteloidea who resides with his owner, John Craven, in Wickham Market, paid handsomely at odds of 25/1. His 3rd place finishing position and performance was queried by the stewards as he had finished a remote 11th at Westerfield only 7 days prior, but the owners explanation that the track was more suitable to his stride length was considered and accepted. |

You missed the annual badger race which takes place at Glemham. This years winner was "Mervyn" - a Burmese Ferret-Badger, from Little Blakenham, attended by his owner Brian Capron. |

I would pitch up a wigwam on Framsden village green, and sing, very loudly, the first few lines of a brilliant Englebert Humperdinck song:-
Tell me when will you be mine,
Quando, quando, quando, quando,
We can share a love divine
Please don't make me wait again |

We're going to need a big haul of goals if we're looking to gain promotion. Downes ain't gonna help in that department. |

I invested heavily in stocks and shares, fortunately chose good ones, and as a result I live in a massive tent on Depden Green, with Geoffrey my pet snake keeping me company. |

It spoiled the Great Depden Green Run - I was hoping for a below 3 hours finish but got nowhere near it - it was tough going. |

It would be good. Depden Green Wanderers are hoping their star striker Nigel Havers will bag at least 25 goals this season. With Barbara Knox on one wing, and Ken Kitson on the other wing, I deem this to be a good possibility. |

We have a lot of FIFA game players on this forum who expect real life football to reflect FIFA. Heaven knows how they would have been if TWTD was around in Bobby Robson's reign - he only signed 14 players during his entire time at Ipswich ! |
