Cheers Crofter. I always enjoy documentaries on the industry.

I saw a very amusing daytime prog about peoples houses the other day hosted by Ulrika Jonsson and guess whos home was featured. David Sullivans. He has two indoor pools, a ten pin bowling alley, a huge banquet hall with a stage for pop bands and about eighty bedrooms. They never mentioned how he made his money they just described him as a businessman.

yes I would like to see a through the Keyhole on everybodys favourite pornstar Ben Dover, I dare say he has a bigger garage than most of us have houses, but that follows, those that say times are hard, moneys tight etc, they seem to be the guys who really should not be too bothered.

If you want to see the inside of Ben Dover's house, just watch any of his films!

There was a C4 doc a couple of years ago where we saw Ben at home (pebble driveway the size of Brighton Beach), and driving his (silver, expensive) car. But it'd be better if Lloyd Grossman was there, picking up a "Ben Dover Anal Training Kit"..."so, this person has a healthy interest in sodomy"...

cos of the hours that I work for HMG`s second least government department (Inland Revenue) I set my video at about 8.30 this morning to tape this programme

Don't expect any sympathy from me, especially now your lot are trying to abolish the tax-free retirement lump-sum. Isn't both arms, one leg and my left kidney enough?
Thankfully, 'Labour Nouveau' seem to have realised that robbing a large portion of the electorate in this fashion would be political suicide.........

I've just recorded an interview for this series. Apparantly the RD doco and the rest of the series has been postponed until the new year. They had some trouble finding people who would slag Richard off, and as a result I don't think the show is finished yet. I don't know about through the keyhole but I got a phone call from Louis Theroux to do his show in the last series. Sadly I couldn't face the idea of him living with us for a couple of months, so I declined. Keyhole would be fun though. I like that show. Maybe I should get out more.

Ben your a spoilsport. I would have liked to see you on Louis Theroux. I suspect he might have given you a grilling over those leather shorts though.
