I saw the first episode of the BBC’s “I’d Do Anything” on Saturday evening.

Rich and I were eating dinner when I jumped up pointing at the screen. Having frightened the life out Rich I explained that I’d just seen what I thought was my friend Nicky’s son Finlay standing at the top of the steps at County Hall waving at the camera. (I was at that point getting our lunch in the Westminster Tescos.)

About half an hour later (having finished my chicken breast in mustard and honey sauce and moved on to my Morrisons organic low fat strawberry yoghurt - not so keen on the rhubarb) I jumped again as I saw Finlay singing and dancing on the screen. Fin was the one in the green tee shirt on the right in the front of a group of boys.

It was literally only a second or so in a montage of shots from the various auditions, but it was Fin.

When I spoke to Nicky on the phone she reminded me that the bit where the Lord got out the taxi waving at the beginning of the show was ( see the previous post) when she had gone out for a break while Fin was auditioning, and had been pushed aside by some woman clearing the way for his Lordship.

Needless to say Fin was very pleased with himself.
