It's Chriiiistmaaas!

Met Noddy Holder the other night, what a lovely man he is too.

This is a picture of him next to Britain's Got Talent "runners-up" Strike (much in the same way that Watford were "runners-up" when they were in the Premiership, from what I can remember).

Come on now, you must remember Strike. Not the Michael Jackson tribute act or the Gene Kelly tribute act, but the martial arts duo with the dodgy mullets.

And if that isn't a talent worthy of national recognition then I don't know what is.

I also like the way they have matched their outfits with an old lady who won a raffle prize. Good work, boys. But enough about them, and back to Noddy.

I was chatting to someone the other day who seemed to have no idea who Mr Holder was. No, not even from his appearances on Stuart Maconie's Radio 2 show or from his appearances a while back on Pop Quiz.

And I thought, if you spend just ten minutes in any major shop over then next few weeks looking for Christmas presents, you'll soon know what Noddy Holder sounds like - even if you don't know what he looks like!

(PS No truth that Reeves and Mortimer are going to go on Britain's Got Talent next year with a Slade tribute act, although if they could do some martial arts at the same time, they might just have a chance.)
