But I happened to switch over to Harry Hill's 'TV Burp' when he was taking the piss out of Louis Walsh's pronunciation of 'Wagner', otherwise I'd have had no idea who the latter was. (Surprised that Walsh didn't know better!) Anyway, having said all that, this YouTube video is quite amusing, and I'm pretty sure Stephen F. would be open-minded enough to approve of it.Raybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424095016313843883noreply@blogger.com
