Formally of Pop Will Eat Itself/Bentley Rhythm Ace/The Wonderstuff, i think he's currently with The Beat.I'm amazed how he manages to fit it all in!

thescrapman Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 The online encyclopedia that is never wrong says he left the wonder stuff earlier this year. His work with Ranking Roger and other former members of The Beat was a few years ago.Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Wilson Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I don't have Sky and only sometimes read Practical Classic. Most of the time I've not got a clue who the singer is in a band never mind the drummer (whistle) 8) :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I managed to find a few episodes of Car SOS online and have been watching them, it's OK, not too staged and not one of those open cheque book restoration shows. It's nice to see some serious anorak moments like how to do cold metal stitching (well almost) but not too much so there's still enough to keep most interested. I think Fuzz would be an asset on the RBRR although I get the impression our cars might be a bit young for his ideal ride :-)I don't have any Pop Will Eat Itself, maybe one Wonder Stuff track but I do have most of what Bentley Rhythm Ace produced.

Toledo Man Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Car SOS is one of the better car programmes. I was surprised that Tim Shaw was his co-presenter but they seem to work together quite well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHRIS211083 Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Would love to do the RBRR this year but don't want to jinx myself by entering just yet. We will see, would be good to meet Fuzz.Chris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Bancroft Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 At current time, we have place for 11 more entries on the RBRR.We have one or two regulars who have not entered as yet, so space is available.We are holding a RBRR Organisational Meeting today, so will be publishing a 'latest news' email this weekend. Suffice to say, all going well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
