    Exciting news!

    There have been rumours in the media world that the popular 80s TV programme, Game For A Laugh, is to make a one-off return next year.

    That offensive article

    (See below picture for text...)
    Sunday Mirror -- not even fit for toilet paper

    GIVE IT A REST, SARAH

    This rubbish was printed in The Sunday Mirror yesterday...

    IT looks like the early mornings are taking their toll on former TV favourite Sarah Kennedy.

    The BBC Radio 2 presenter looked under the weather as she left the studio last week.

    Sarah, 54, who shot to fame as one of the hosts of Game For a Laugh, has been presenting the 6am show from Broadcasting House.

    But maybe she should ask for a later slot as she is obviously not an early morning person.

    An onlooker said: " No one would expect her to look like she did 20 years ago, but it was shocking to see her looking so old."

    Sarah has worked in broadcasting for more than 25 years.

    She and her partner Adrian, who is 15 years her junior, divide their time between their three British homes.

    Drink up with SK!

    From Wogan's Children In Need auction...

    PORTUGAL WITH SARAH KENNEDY
    If you've always dreamed of sharing a glass of Port with Sarah Kennedy then you may want to get your cheque-book ready because this auction lot is a corker.

    You'll be bidding for a very rare bottle of Quinta do Noval Nacional port - only 200 cases are ever made in a vintage year. The catch is that the winning bidder, and a friend, will have to collect their bottle of Nacional from the Quinta house in Portugal - in the company of our Sarah Kennedy.

    You and a guest will stay with Sarah at Noval's estate house for a special weekend during harvest time between the end of September and early October next year. You will be given a tour of the vineyards and the cellars, and tastings of their Vintage and Tawny ports. And you can roll up your trousers and tread the grapes yourself in the giant granite lagares, accompanied by traditional organ music, or you can play boules on the house terrace or stroll down the white wall.

    The offer includes airfares between London and Oporto and transfers to the Douro - that's a car drive up on the Friday afternoon and narrow gauge railway train-ride back to Oporto city on the Monday. All meals and wines, including a Noval port tasting as well as classic vintages for dinners, will be provided during the weekend.

    Silly people criticise our Sarah

    This is from The Guardian...

    BBC DJ rapped for criticising Tony Blair
    Radio 2 DJ Sarah Kennedy has been censured by BBC bosses for criticising Tony Blair and suggesting Saddam Hussein should kill himself. The presenter, who hosts the early morning weekday show before handing over to Terry Wogan, was criticised in the corporation's quarterly programme complaints bulletin.

    Kennedy made the comments about the government on three separate programmes during the summer. Two listeners complained after she was critical about its record on health, transport and Iraq.

    In July, another listener complained after the DJ suggested it would be better if Saddam Hussein were to commit suicide rather than face trial.

    "The comment, made during the review of the morning papers, was an inappropriate expression of a personal view on a topic of controversy," said the BBC in its ruling. Kennedy's comments on the government broke the corporation's rules on impartiality.

    "The head of programmes, Radio 2, discussed the finding with Sarah Kennedy and reminded her of the principles which apply to the treatment of controversial topics. The programme team was instructed to be alert to potentially controversial stories in advance of transmission."

    More holidays, February, duck fat, gay cats and snorkels

  • SK can't get over the fact that her two cats take no notice of their reflections in mirrors.
  • It was revealed today that one of Sarah's cats is gay and vegetarian.
  • Today, Kennedy is off to buy a snorkel.
