REG appears in a new Argos ad, sitting in back of limousine when inspiration strikes. His personal assistant stumbles into Argos store to purchase guitar for the maestro and the ad ends with REG singing!

Debbie informs me that the Oxygen channel has started showing AbFab on Saturday and Sunday. At 2:30pm (central) Saturday, Oct. 19, is Hospital/Death which is the episode that REG appears in.

Barbara B. has noted on the mailing list that Curse of the Fatal Death is now available on video from Barnes and Noble for $12.99. REG only appears for about 2 minutes but both minutes are good ones! There is a “Making of…” documentary on the tape as well. Richard is the Dr Who virgin – probably the only one in the cast and crew who’d never really done the Dr Who thing as a young man. He is really endearing and quite funny/sweet/lost in the whole process in the short interview clips. Well worth the money!

And this snippet taken from BBC website. Still no airing dates on this I’m afraid.

Posh Nosh.

Minty (Arabella Weir) and Simon (Richard E Grant) wouldn’t call themselves the only two cooks on television. That would be bad breeding. Just don’t mention Delia, Nigella or that oik with the scooter within a mile of their 17th-century Buckinghamshire mansion.

Learn to relax an avocado, bamboozle a parsnip or shave a fennel. See why you need an Aga, a title and a dog. Marvel at the happiest of marriages, while Minty sweats in the kitchen and Simon “supervises” his wine cellar and practises his backhand with his live-in tennis coach Jose, in the cookery show to end all cookery shows.

Finally, REG returns as The Scarlet Pimpernel at 9pm next Thursday, UK Drama. It’s likely to be a repeat of the first series.
