Thanks for that - would have missed it.

Well worth watching - not just because of Sam's involvement.

RIP Sam.

I had to laugh when Sam told about his time up in the Highlands when the kids told their mother that the coalman had arrived. They obviously hadn't seen a blackman before.

RIP Sam.

Just got round to watching this. What a wee superstar. Ian Lavender seemed to be a bit of a Sam fan too. And I also realised from the wee look we got from his passport that Sam shared a birthday with me (and Ivan Sproule). I'm in pretty damn good company :wink:

Can anyone tell me what the program was called please?

I missed it and would like to see if it's on All 4.

Thanks.

Sam was on a programme last night again - one of the BBC black history programmes about Caribbean servicemen in the war. May have been a repeat as he says he was 104... and a half...

very interesting regardless of hibs interest
