Rick Wakeman is a guest on Countdown. His usual schtick is to read out tedious old apocryphal stories or lists of apocryphal supposedly "cute" things kids have supposedly said or written. Not only is his material ancient, unfunny and not true, but he seems incapable of admitting that he just copied it from somewhere else, usually claiming the apocryphal stories actually happened to him personally, or that he personally collected the ancient and apocryphal list of allegedly funny roadsigns/hotel signs/parish notices all by himself, seemingly unaware that we the viewers have access to Google as well. He also seems to think that acknowledging that women are people too counts as some radical posture which will convince us that he's a right-on liberal kind of guy and definitely not a reactionary right-wing tax exile who's done nothing of interest for the last thirty years. Oh, and he is probably unfamiliar with the concept of "looking in a mirror" or he wouldn't go out like that.
Rick Wakeman is 107.
