Let them give you a ‘lift’
Monday 18th September 2006, 3:53PM BST.
You may not like it a lot (see where I’m going with this one?) but the likes of Paul Daniels, David “cheap as chips” (read the story here) Dickinson and “celeb MP” Lembit Opik have all graced the pages of the Star today.
Both The Duke and the short magiciany fella paid visits to the county while Lembit will be gracing the small screen on Friday on a talent show.
Some may grumble about the number of column inches we give to these people, but at least it lightens the mood from the death and destruction that dominates the pages.
And I, for one, could laugh at a picture of Paul Daniels with a playing card stuck to his head all day long…
