Peter Andre’s son has just turned 21. I thought Peter Andre himself was about 29.

He’s 91. Met him a few times when I did Dave Mackay’s book. Dapper in his THFC blazer he swerved around the corporate hospitality tables like a man of 25. Well done, Cliff.

A man whose positive influence on our city can never be overstated.
While his mission has never been about personal acclaim, all at Stoke City are thrilled to see Lou Macari recognised in the King’s Birthday Honours List.

When the premium telephone lines first came out there used to be a number you gave people and said “some bloke called & said can you call him back”. When your friend did, he got two minutes of severe verbal abuse. Oh what fun we had.

Michael Jackson film wasn’t bad. Colman Domingo as his dad was a performance others will find hard to beat it. The gang sequence was off the wall. It doesn’t tackle the more dangerous aspects of Jackson’s life. But all in all if it’s on at a cinema nearby you got to be there.

Settling down to watch the new Michael Jackson film with wife & daughter. I decided to make it like a cinema visit: lights off/big bag of Licorice Allsorts/sofa pulled forward. To complete the experience I stuck a piece of chewed gum on the armchair for one of them to sit on.

Iain Dale takes over the seat at LBC & clearly is offended by the odour. Who precedes him on air?

IMO Joey speaks for many young people who are relaxed in a multicultural society. Much more than previous generations. That should not be conflated with illegal immigration. It’s a separate safety & security issue. Supine politicians put us all at risk.
