John informs us that REG features in a new fictional novel entitled THE MAN ON PLATFORM 5.

This bestselling book was written by Robert Llewellyn (Red Dwarf), and is a hilarious story about an ‘anorak’ fan-type of person. Amongst his endeavour and pursuits throughout the course of the novel is his numerous atempts to get an auotgraph from our REG who is busy filming a movie. He evenually catches up with REG in a well written and funny scenario!

Good to see that REG even turns up as fictional characters these days – such is his fame!

PS – The novel has been bought by a film studio for $1,000,000 and is currently being developed in a screenplay. Does this mean that REG will have a future movie role playing himself? We hope so!
