   Haven't seen Game of Thrones, but he was Lord Vetinari in Terry Pratchett's "Going Postal". :D

I greatly enjoyed "The Jewel in the Crown", the first time round - unusually, because even when young I'd learned to avoid dramatisation of books I had enjoyed - and I'd enjoyed reading Paul Scott's "Raj Quartet" over the summer. That's the main thing I can name him for - never seen "Game of Thrones" - but Dance is reliably good whatever he seems to turn up in.
Threlfall (Southport), Isherwood (lancs & Canada), Newbould + Topliss(Derby), Keating & Cummins (Ireland + lancs), Fisher, Strong& Casson (all Cumberland) & Downie & Bowie, Linlithgow area Scotland . Also interested in Leigh& Burrows,(Lancashire) Griffiths (Shropshire & lancs), Leaver (Lancs/Yorks) & Anderson(Cumberland and very elusive)

Just managed to not read the spoiler that Peter from Lost Cousins wrote in his latest newsletter!

I don't understand why papers have to print information that will completely spoil watching the programme. Takes all the element of surprise out of it.

Hope I can manage to avoid anything else that's been printed before I actually watch it!!

I think that if you haven't logged in to Lost Cousins actual web site for a period of time then you don't receive the newsletters..

I find them very interesting and he keeps you up to speed with all the latest info ... it was just the fact he'd written about the WDYTYA that I thought was a pity!

I accidentally read that spoiler in the Lost Cousins newsletter.  >:(

Rather than blurting it out he should have just provided the link for anyone who wished to read it, and made it very clear that the link provided some information which would may ruin the programme for some viewers.   :(

I thought it a bit out of order actually.

I never log into Lost Cousins but I still receive the newsletters.  :)

That will be odd listening to another voice doing the narration have got quite used to Cheri and a man this time too.....

I agree Ruskin - just managed to stop myself from reading the spoiler on Lost Cousins!

You're lucky you still get the newsletters then Ruskin as Peter did comment some time back that to keep getting them you needed to have actually logged on from time to time?
