    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

    Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

    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
