That had a good laugh during the end of live at five... they played a few of Bobs best bits (usually ending up with Anna Botting in stiches)


Bob collects his MBE next week, so he's not quite gone yet. Still...

I was out this evening, at a special Q and A session with Tony Blair, so I missed the end of Live at Five. I knew that they'd mention something then! Did Anna have anything to say for herself?!

But, managed to get home to watch the last two hours with Bob and Viv, and saw the little report someone had put together about Bob's career and making his co-presenters laugh. Love what Viv did at the end, reading out all the current female presenters names that he had been co-presenter to (Anna, Kay, Sheila, Juliette and herself) and saying thank you to Bob on their behalf!

Well, shook hands with the Prime Minister, and watched the depature of a journalistic legend, all in the space of about 4 hours...I feel quite Confused
