Johnny Ball

[Chris S]

Did he used to call Shaggy on Scooby Doo 'Shabby'?

Play School and Think of a Number for me.

I always wanted to marry Zoe... not because i fancy Zoe (I don't really)... but because Johnny Ball would be a great father-in-law.

Really??!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and all that

Talented family, I remember his cousin Kenny who had a band of Jazz Men.

Johnny Ball, reveals all.

No, not like that.

 

[Joey Shabadoo]

Lucille Ball's love child is he not?

Talented family, I remember his cousin Kenny who had a band of Jazz Men.

And his uncle Tommy's mahoosive discount shoe warehouse.

Has @Bromptonaut explained the op yet?

 

[Bromptonaut]

Sorry, forgot about this.

Mrs B was in Liverpool in first week of Jan for a professional conference. Johnny Ball was the guest speaker at the mid week formal dinner. Neither of us had any idea of his broadcasting career since Play School so him giving an august speech to an audience of the science education community was a bit of a surprise.

It must have worked though as she bought a copy of his book which he signed.

If he spoke in the same style as he did on 'Think of a Number' that would've been well worth listening to.
