oooh, and look at all those links to the BBC Cult site. Isn;t that the one they got rid of?

And someone should tell them that the "BBCi Cult: Andrew Sachs Interview" is defunct as well.

(all these off the main bit of the Fawlty Towers page).

But yay for a link to us on the BBC front page!

The Cult links should all still be fine, as although the team working on the site have now gone, the pages are being left up, for the time being at least. smiley - smiley

Darned if I know. To be honest, they've been a wee bit rickety ever since the hardware failure a couple of weeks back, which is annoying. I know that it's still being looked into by the Engineers though, so panic ye not! smiley - smiley

Dr E Vibenstein (You know it is, it really is.)

Very nice. smiley - smiley Now is there any chance that if the bbc.co.uk homepage goes back to publicising the forthcoming John Peel Day, the page could link to the hootoo entry on the esteemed Mr Peel, rather than the Wikipedia entry? smiley - erm
