Television Personalities

As I understand it, Ed was invited to participate at the 100 Club event but declined while sending his best wishes. I don't think he attended.

Nice one Bazza...

Yes...this Ed Ball tribute has been in progress for a long time. I'm playing bass on Rotifer's version of 'Red With Purple Flashes'...seems like an age ago.

New addition to the Soundcloud page - a radio interview with Dan, which took place before the gig in Bergen, Norway in October 2008.

I visited Dan earlier this week. There is no real change to report since Patricia's last update.

Hi All,

Just to let you know, Dan has been moved out of hospital to a dedicated rehabilitation centre, which will hopefully hasten his recovery.

Thanks Paul. I will certainly pass that on.

Hi all, I've been visiting Dan in hospital over the past few weeks (with the family's permission). I'll leave the official updates to Patricia, but just wanted to add to her latest update above to say that on most of the occasions I have visited, Dan has seemed in good spirits. Some of the things he...
