This really upset me  :sad: Loved Bob Holness and was a big fan of Blockbusters - was part of my childhood! He was only the second man to ever play James Bond on the radio in 1956.

And he was amusingly rumoured to play Sax on "Baker Street" although this was a hoax started by Stuart Maconie  :laugh: (It was actually a highly talented sax player called Raphael Ravenscroft).

Please don't "bring back Blockbusters". It won't be the same, and they'll probably get some d!ck like John Barrowman to present it, which would be very very wrong.  :sad:
