LOL - a nice end to the Paddick Story - would look good in the movie!

Perhaps that will be a final comment and an up-yours to the Mail and the Met.

Well done Brian. :)

icepick will be delighted too :)

Whie I'm happy that his award shows just how out of step the Mail is, I think of sense of perspective wouldn't go amiss:

"while Big Brother Bermondsey babe Jade Goody got seven per cent, Boris Karloff, who played Frankenstein's monster, came fifth".

Yes, but the shortlist was drawn up after a first feedback (phone) from their readers.

Who is the greatest south Londoner? (http://icsouthlondon.icnetwork.co.uk/0100news/0200southlondonheadlines/page.cfm?objectid=12357265&method=full&siteid=50100)

I think it's a fine accolade. Far better than the establishment giving Paddick a knighthood. They are sticking two fingers up at us, not the other way round IMO.

This is the most excellent thing I've ever heard.

When I stuck up my post suggesting nominating him, I hoped that maybe with a bit of luck he might squeeze into the final shortlist, enough to embarass the powers that be a bit.

But WINNING?????

Fucking brilliantly done, Brian. We couldn't fix that, it's your own doing.
