On BBC Radio 4 today (25th) at midday, Terry is presenting ‘With Great Pleasure’.

The Christmas edition is always a special treat…
Folks, We have seen the first half of the BBC documentary and it looks pretty good. Importantly, it would seem at the moment that we have witnessed that rarest of things, a film crew that has been allowed into a convention and hasn’t tried to stuff the fans. Some of you know you were filmed…
It’s been phenomenally successful, but we promised that it would only be available for a limited time and so we will be retiring Terry’s Alzheimer’s T-shirt at the end of November. Many thanks to everyone who has shown their support for this fantastic cause!

At last some progress is being made on Unseen Academicals since we got through the making of the BBC2 documentary and all the alternative calls on my time that seemed to have filled the past year. Today, for example, I have nothing to do but write and Rob and I were just mentioning how odd…

Folks, To those that want to know, it would be true to say that my life right now is occasional short periods of writing interspersed and interrupted with requests for interviews. As my UK readers will know, merely catching a variant of Alzheimer’s has propelled me onto more prestigious chat show sofas than I have…
