...and therefore to encourage the DCs to watch his programmes because, after all, they are educational?

What is it you like the most? The perma-smile that says 'I am a deeply creepy person'.

I used to encourage my DS to watch deadly sixty for Steve Backshall related reasons.

No offence...I doubt you would much fancy my DH either (although he is a great fan of yours!)

By this I mean he is a great fan of your DH. I am sure he would be a fan of you too!

He looks exactly like one of those old-fashioned ventriloquists' dummies. I keep expecting him to say "Gottle of geer" and "Gread and Gutter". Gorgeous is the last thing I would call him.

I mean that very caringly of course.

The physicist, although in the light of morning without the benefit of a couple of glasses of wine he's looking somewhat different...Steve Backshall on the other hand.....

I can't watch his programs - I find them tedious because he takes so long to say anything. His subjects I find interesting - just his particular programs send me to sleep ! I have pondered whether that is his style or down to the producer/director.

Really? He looks like Pete Burns.

My mum fancies him too. Would you like her number so you can discuss him?

I used to fancy him, then I followed him on Twitter, now, not so much.

Pete Burns?! I saw him on a 1980s programme the other night, what on earth has he done to his lips? Far too much of whatever he's had done to them. He was a bit of alright in the 80s but not now...

Yes. Always smirking in a 'I brought physics to the masses don't you know' kind of way or 'The Radio Times said I'm the thinking woman's Johnny Depp'.
