Entertainment For Lively Minds
Monkey Tennis revisited
Posted by David Rothon on 30 April 2009 - 5:21pm.
In the course of my researches at work, I found this synopsis on Wiki for a TV show presented by Jonathon Morris (out of Bread):
“ In 2007, Morris presented Jonathon's Morris on Discovery Home & Leisure. Morris lovingly restored his 1982 Morris Ital, before travelling around his home county of Lancashire, meeting fellow Morris Ital owners.”
I don't actually want to know whether this series really existed, but could there be a more perfect synergy between presenter and content? Anyone care to pitch any more?
