Bernie’s Personal Biog on Richard Bacon

Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

There is only one Richard Bacon and I adore him…….. he would be my number one desert Island disc bloke (platonically you do understand). Whilst waiting on our forced upon private beach for any remote sightings of parsing ship rescuers we would have the most in-depth conversations about absolutely everything. He is extremely clever and i have learnt a lot by just listening to what he has to say. He is Married to the most wonderful and beautiful lady and one other brilliant thing about ol Ricardo is that he will never let you down as long as he writes it down.

How Bernie really feels about Keith Allen

Monday, March 1st, 2010

Keith Allen, I love him, I adore him, he has the kindest heart ever. He completely saved me at the Latitude festival by rescuing  me from sleeping under the moon and stars. Personally I prefer a four poster Chippendale with a en-suit with complementary warm towels, but hey that’s me. Any way I’ve known keith and his kids for about fifteen years and I just love little Alfie, God dame it I love them all.
