@TheMonologist This is still sublime. Two minutes of comedy gold. How many young people would appreciate it now, humour being such a generational thing?

@Molbysgut @1968Tv @paulkop69 Both of them went to the same schools, Brookfield and Rushey Hey.

@NEFootyEnthuse @HibernianFC Ha, just seen your reply. I have a sure-fire way of getting into the game of my choice...

Just want to say always trust the nhs. They were excellent removing a mole from my arse. Unlike the RSPCA who will prosecute me if I do it again.

@henrywinter Last season I got hit in the face with the ball during the Villa warm up at OT (I'm a photographer). Occupational hazard and it looked worse than it felt but he was the player who ran over to check I was ok. One of the good guys IMHO.

@SuperbFootyPics Taken before his final game for Stoke in 1965, I think. Or maybe his testimonial. Is that Dennis Viollet on his left?

@TheMonologist Wow! What a fabulous scene. Hanks was pretty good, too.

@snapperlane @LivEchonews @Jess_Molyneux1 I shot what I think was his final ever fight there in 1980, Col!

@stGuyer @AFP We're blessed to be able to do things we love...

[Alan Martin @Sideshow_alvie]

@JohnKeithUK Great to see the two of you today, both in fine form. Both true legends of merseyside football.

@TheMonologist Loved this back in the day. Re-watched it recently and was struck by what seemed to be a total absence of women among the scientists in the Devil's Tower scenes.

@kengland @PictureSporting I was just thinking the same thing, Ken. YNWA
