  • I hope Angela does really well...good on her and I look forward to seeing this .Although I expect nasty spiteful horrendous little witches like Kate2828 will have a go and try ripping her to shreads out of pure jealousey. Kate tries to be so whimiscal and cutting but just comes across as some dried up sexually retarded hate filled bully.

  • Mastermind (Score:1, Interesting)

    I saw this in the Radio Times just last night. I was naturally reminded of Uncle Skinny's appearance a few years ago.

    I'm looking forward to hearing the questions - I wonder what aspects of Moz and his career they'll pick on.

    Also, I wonder if John Humphries will trot out the same lazy comments about Moz being miserable, etc. ;-)

  • It was my pleasure to meet Angela when queuing for tickets in 2004 at the Royal Festival Hall. Angela did a great impression of Moz. Can't hear the name Angela without saying it in Morrissey's voice in my head now.

  • Angela did very well on Mastermind with the Morrissey questions - it was her general knowledge that let her down. The winner proved once and for all that there are bigger nerds than Smiths/Morrissey fans. Who'll be next?

  • She came in second place (out of 4 contestants). Not bad!

    The presenter asked her is Moz was "an angry man - he seems angry" and she said no, whenever she met him he was friendly and jovial.
