You should see what they dismissed in court  

Personally...I'd have hung the bastard.

Good agent though - ain't we all..

 I'm surprised he's back working in such a high profile series Velvet 

Pity as its such an interesting history series, and I want to learn about it.

 Oh Well. One less for my presenters-I'd-like-to-be-washed-up-on-a-desert-island-with list.

It was starting to get a bit crowded. *ducks and hides*

Its my island and I'll have as much totty on it as I like! 

fair enough.

I need an island...

One with a big perimeter fence so they can't escape. 

Sounds vaguely evil... yet practical... I like it!

Thank you  

JM could devise a shelter for the island. Steve Backshall with his muscles could build it. Chris Packham could advise on the flora and fauna. Neil Oliver, umm.. not sure what he could do... stand looking moodily out to sea? 

Sounds ideal.I imagine Steve would try to compete with Chris over animals and it would be "No, no, that's ok... you just get back to building up a swea... the shelter. I'll supervise." *nods*

How about a couple of the Horrible Histories guys for entertainment? Ben could be  pirate, Mat would be Dick Turpin and Jim could sing stuff.

Yay! love it

Can't forget the entertainment stuffs  

thought. who will cook?

Good question. Who are the seccsy chefs?

Ray Mears is good at foraging and cooking wild food 

You know... I can't think of any...

Maybe James Strawbridge? He's ok looking, but has a tendency to  put manky ingredients (like nuts/cream) in recipes that don't call for them.

Good suggestion , but what if he sprouts a ridiculous moustache like his dad ? I've a soft spot for The Hairy Bikers. Plus we could do with a couple of burly blokes on the island. 

However this island is a democracy so we get to vote 

[ Gets out massive conch shell, lights fire ] 

We could decree a moustache ban? Except of course in the bikers' case.

I was just about to fall asleep last night when I remembered Jun Tanaka, if we ever feel like some Asian cuisine.

*scurries away from conche shell and fire* What's wrong with paper and pen?

(i haven't got my specs on, so have no idea what this post looks like. Well obviously, I can... just... typing with keyboard near my face. )

Asian cuisine  

Paper and pen right you are! I prefer drawing in the sand with a spear myself 

you have a spear?

would a stick not suffice?

Aww but Neil Oliver looks the part with a spear  please lemme have spears!

Pretty soft desert island this is... we'll be having comfy sofas next  

Will you be watching the rugby Hitch? I don't know if I can bear to... 

Ok, ok... the Neil argument is valid... you may have your spears. I hope Neil can fish with them, cause seems that Steve is hopeless fishing.

I shall be. I saw the earlier game... England were jammy. and tomorrow Scotland will be schooled in rugby by the Welsh.
