and then hippos... I tell you, those surfers have been eaten by the bloody sharks!
Just out of interest, which one would you use if somebody important died, like when HRH The Queen Mum died, they had the ballet dancers, I don't really think any of them suit this sort of situation other than the Moon.
OT slightly, this is the first time I can remember the three BBC North regions opting out for 2 hours in this way. Came as a bit of a surprise since I hadn't noticed the difference in the schedule.
Thanks Paul.

Hippos
