Rare MicCanberra Posted March 1, 2020 #2 Share Posted March 1, 2020 All good things come to an end, or so they say, such a shame a popular show like this has to be one of the things that end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho_proudfoot Posted March 3, 2020 #3 Share Posted March 3, 2020 I think she'll be back. I think she has overestimated her skills as a singer ( yes, she's good, but not that good). Once she isn't all over the TV the popularity of her singing shows will drop off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jocap Posted March 6, 2020 #4 Share Posted March 6, 2020 I've just been given her autobiography as a late birthday gift- the giver was waiting for the paperback to come out, which it did on Thursday. It will take me back to my childhood haunts in Wakefield.. 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winifred Posted March 7, 2020 #5 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Did Jane know about coronavirus before anyone else ?😉 Seriously though, will miss this programme Always enjoyed it watching it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roofire Posted March 7, 2020 Author #6 Share Posted March 7, 2020 So the latest news is Susan Calman, Scottish Comedian who was on Strictly a while back, will be taking over........

Rare MicCanberra Posted March 8, 2020 #7 Share Posted March 8, 2020 Hope we can understand Susan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winifred Posted March 10, 2020 #8 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Hope we can understand Susan? Ouch! As a fellow Scot I really hope that’s a joke! Susan speaks very clearly , I’m sure we won’t need subtitles for all you Aussies that only enunciate in the perfect Queens English! She’s nowhere near as funny as a Jane but that’s another story ....! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSWP Posted March 11, 2020 #9 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Maybe Jane Mac can be the star act on Fred Olsen Line ships, given her apprenticeship some decades ago as a ship's cabaret singer, no I did not say on the Titanic !!! She would fit right in with the demographic on Fred🤣 I did watch most of her shows on TV, quite entertaining, although her laugh got to me sometimes.

In Hamish Macbeth, they had some characters with a much broader accent, Like TV John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winifred Posted March 11, 2020 #13 Share Posted March 11, 2020 And I have trouble understanding that thick dialect mangling of the queens English from dahn unda! Haha guess that makes us even 😉 Susan is hilarious in her own mind only! And hope she doesn’t try to sing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the show will be more on cruising and he ships and ports than herself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stayed in South Queensferry with cruising friends from Glasgow, and the chippie there was selling them! 😁 We don't know if anyone was buying, though...

There can be people with corks in their hats but it was a thing of yesteryear, most people would find them irritating bumping around in your face, fly/bug spray or cream is much more affective nowadays. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted March 12, 2020 #19 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Saw a you tube video of her at the comedy Festival, she was okay but not side splitting funny. I think she may work well as a presenter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2BACRUISER Posted March 15, 2020 #20 Share Posted March 15, 2020 No not Susan Calman 🙄 dont find her funny or right person at all. Not sure who would be might be good to have had a Male host for a change. 🤔 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winifred Posted March 21, 2020 #24 Share Posted March 21, 2020 With Michael Portillo you would need sunglasses for his choice of outfits? yellow trousers anyone ?? No he's pompous beyond belief and doesn't seem to relate well to people The one and only Billy Connelly was totally brilliant on his travel programmes such a shame he is ill and couldn't now manage. He was funny intelligent and had that special something that made people all over the world warm to him. Perhaps I could suggest Kevin Bridges? at least he's funny! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted March 22, 2020 #25 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Billy was always funny and is such a nice guy as well. Met him on the street once in the Rocks (an area on Sydney Harbour), I just said "G'day" as he was walking by, he stopped and had a quick chat which was totally unexpected. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
