Quote Message
Youth Hostelling with Chris Eubank has now become a reality, and... finally, albeit a little embarrassed and ashamed, I'm in on the joke 18 years after Alan Partridge pitched it.
We're looking forward to seeing Monkey Tennis, A Room With An Alan and Inner City Sumo on our screens in due course.
