Never Meet Your HeroesThey're bound to disappoint - like the time we booked Wayne Hussey for the B3ta Radio Show. Five minutes before we're due to record, Wayne
phones, lost on the M25 with his Brazilian wife screaming in the background. Not so much the King of Goth, as a hen-pecked flake.

Mr Bronson aka M Sheard R.I.P.My brother and i went to Weston Super Mare for some kind of comic geekery, and wondered into a room full of Geek heroes eg Keeny Baker, some of the Dr Who ladies, Mon Mothma, jeremy Bullock,Wickett Warwick, Admiral Piatt,Prowse...but special *UNNG** was saved for Michael Sheard who played Mr Bronson and Hitler and was murdered by Darth Vader.
Anyways, my brother paid £20 for his autograph, and I had an idea to get him to bellow "KENDALL!" into my MP3 player...but was too much of a *UUNG* to ask, so my brother asked if he wouldn't mind obliging...Mr Sheard (to my eternal respect ) replied in perfect diction "If you pay me my £20, I'll do anything you like" - we did, so he did, and now his voice eternally announces the launching of Windows XP at home.
What a nice chap he was...shame he died.
The whore....
*UNNG* That noise you make as you shit yourself seeing someone famous...and freeze
