I hardly ever watch his Friday show, but the odd bits I see I like well enough. Usually seen on the early morning Sunday slot, but even then, not a must-see.

I'd listen to his radio show on my portable Roberts radio when I used to go to Sainsbury on DoKeHi of a Saturday morning and thoroughly enjoyed it. I stopped going (no particular reason, though now I think of it, going out of my way to procure what Charlie Brown described as 'Blah' may have had something to do with it, dearish 'Blah' at that), and stopped listening, couldn't tell you why, really. It no longer seemed the 'must listen' it once was. My fault, maybe, Jonathan didn't change, so perhaps I did.

Whenever I watch his film reviews, I like his analysis and comments. Just don't watch very often.

As far as it goes, whatever part of my licence tax contributes towards his wages is, well, OK. I suppose.

I think I like the idea and the fact that he's around and available, much more than the actuality.


I'd like him to come back, but right now I couldn't give you ten reasons why.

Well I liked his Friday show for the quality of the guests he sometimes got on, and also watching how the various women handled the appalling "lad" persona he always employed. Jane Fonda was a highlight - "Jonathan you need to get laid" actually shut him up for a moment. :)

    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
    • Oh, I didn't know that! I didn't move here till 1991 (I think) but the NCR incarnation must have been around that time? Unless my failing memory is even worse than I thought it was, sob.
    • I just googled, and apparently there's another branch of the Soho Street Govinda's  in Theobald's Road. I had no idea.
    • yes that's the one!  it was (nearly) harmless fun to get the un-initiated to put the coin in for you i also seem to remember that the Hanway Street place was called Govinda's.  it was vegetarian, vegan even - but it was much more palatable fare than the standard Hare Krishna stuff.  I also used to go tot he Indian Y - which I remmber discussing on the EDF some eyars ago.  And then the first Wagamama opened off Russell Street
