Vile Pervert; The Musical is far more entertaining Angel, and far more accurate.
Angel
Talking of re-runs, would anyone know where i can view the Nick Hornby documentary on JK titled " Life on the outside?" It would be interesting to me as my opinions on the "meejah" have changed considerably since the last view. Second time around with a different perspective would be an eye opener.

and as a matter of interest JonG I searched for his big hit and was amused to see 75,000 views on one channel alone. Interesting that radio and TV no longer play it but 75,000 people seem to want to hear/see it.
Unless of course all those 75,000 are him.
Wouldn't put it past him.

And yet Dirty Den was fine on Eastenders? And Jonathan Aitken is frequently on our screens?
No, it's the ruling philosophy - "would it be good TV?" is less important to nervous executives than "would it get me into trouble with the tabloids?".
Fine by me but let's be honest.
If you can't do the time, don't do the crime.
And if you didn't do the crime? Hope you can prove it.
And if you can't prove it? Be prepared not to be on screen again anyway. Serve your sentence? Never.
Actually, that's wrong. There are always ways. About 6 million views by You Tube, My Space and other viewers.
And when they fail to publish a letter with my name on it, they publish letters with other names on them.
And 10,000 people a day visit King Of Hits.

Come on JK, you have to look at it from their point of view. Whether you like it or not, pending your appeal you are a convicted criminal guilty of heinous crimes. You can't expect the BBC to put you on prime time TV. Society is not ready for this.
Besides there are plenty of bright, young talented presenters that could take the mantle. It is not you or nothing you know. The world doesn't revolve around you.
Why not produce the show with the right presenter and key people instead of being at the forefront of the show. Once your appeal is heard and if you are acquited then you can milk it for what it is worth.
