Go on. Just change the name to Chris Rea.

When I first joined the dibble I was TVP. A made of mine in another division was sent to a job at Terry Wogans house near Thame.

My mate Stuey knocked on the door, and eventually Terry Wogan answered, bald as a coot.

Stuey says, "I'm here to see Terry Wogan."

Wogan says, "Oh, that's my brother, I'll go and get him." He then closes the door.

About 30 seconds later the door opens and once again theremjs Terry Wogan, but now wearing a hastily applied and rather skewiff rug.

"Hi, I'm Terry Wogan..." he says.

Chris Rea was the first contestant to say "penis" on Blockbusters.

Agh the infamous autoque 'accident'.

The - Blockbusters question, 'what phrase was said to be first used by English author Edward Bulwer-Lytton in 1839?

The answer obviously...
"The pen is mightier than the sword''...

But the wag 'Rea' sneakily got to the autocue to change the word order slightly, though enough, to cause uproar from the Mary Whitehouse Foundation...

Chris Rea made it to the semi finals of Dancing on Ice but was disqualified when his costume suffered some "nip-slip" and his right breast was exposed, contrary to rule 6.14 of the competition.

Rea protested his innocence and insisted the whole thing was a dreadful misunderstanding, and wouldn't have happened at all if they hadn't made him wear Bernard Manning's costume from the previous series.

Who the heck would have a holiday cottage in Middlesbrough?

Richard Madeley, purely to annoy Chris Rea!

Just to really twist the knife he makes Judy leave the curtains open when changing for bed, leaving poor old Chris Rea with PTSD.

Chris Rea and Terry Wogan line dance on the bar of the Hinds Head every St Patrick’s day. They then sit down and both order a pint of Guinness and pork scratching. They take two hours to consume these items. This is just to annoy Heston Blumenthal.

Chris Rea's TURDIS failed its MOT last week.

Regulation 11.2.8 - "Christian Fish chrome badge on bootlid partially obscuring view of rust patch."

Reference to the old testament, whether explicit or implied will be severely frowned upon and followed up with tut tut tut. You should know that. Naughty, bad Drago. Say15 hail Mary's.

A new Terminator film was to be made with Chris Rea in the starring role but he threw a hissy fit when casting directors proposed Richard Madeley and Alan Titchmarsh as liquid-metal robot co-stars.

Rea subsequently left the project, blaming 'creative differences', and is now pitching to be Ken in the next Barbie movie.

The British Psychological Journal concluded that the current generation of children and adults alike who are suffering from mental health and anger issues, are not victims of Lockdown, Boris Johnsons ramblings and months of isolation but years of exposure to the Telly tubbies, In the night garden and Mr Tumble.

The following is a very tangled, profound (and incomprehensible) web of Chris Rea's making relating to the above.

In a bid to appease the baying public who suffered years of abuse at the hands of C beebies, a few files were very publicly released by Auntie in front of the Village hall in Llangrannog proudly displayed by a few Stainsby girls inexplicably wearing Mackintosh Tartan.
This was in accordance with Terry Wogan's last wishes, his Last Will and Testament now been made public having been buried underneath a rather 'agricultural' remake of The Good Life which didn't meet the boards approval.

Although not very comprehensive, the most shocking revelation was a brief 5 second clip of the CCTV footage (stored on re-writeable DVD-R) of the underground goings on involving Charlie Dimnock and Chris Rea. The global press have gone to town on the lurid images but in the process a very sad fact has escaped the attention of the frenzied paparazzi:
The underground location it was revealed, belonged to Makka Pakka. Makka Pakka paid Tommy Walsh 2 boulders, 6 stones and 12 pebbles for the property. Makka Pakka has not been seen since Miss Dimnock and Mr Rea vacated the dwelling without notice (forfeiting their deposit) and knocking the neatly stacked stones down near the entrance, suggesting a very hurried exit. It is thought that Makka Pakka has been deeply traumatised by what he witnessed, further compounded by the condition of his stone arrangements.
Breaking his silence, Igglepiggle released a press statement saying that he is 'very concerned' for Makka Pakka's welfare and will be fronting a national TV appeal asking members of the public for any information that may lead to Makka Pakka's whereabouts.
