Indeed Jonathan. I enjoy your travelogues, and ET USA gave us all a fascinating insight into life across the pond. I don't believe people just tuned in in their millions to find out what was the top of the US charts; it was much more than that. And it is greatly missed.

but I have to say I think I started this whole approach to travel on TV.
Alan Whicker did a brilliant job before me but I converted his more objective view to a subjective feeling which Michael Palin and others have absolutely followed.
The combination of voice over, in person, jokey involvement etc... my ingredients totally (thanks largely to Gordon Elsbury).
