Didn't Michael Parkinson write a very funny book about his early footballing years in Barnsley? Colin. Western Australia. Ps. Just watched a Parkinson show starring Nesbitt (can't remember his first name) ,Tony Bennett and Jeff Bridges. Anyone know when this was recorded...I'm wondering how far behind we are?

yes he did he was from Barnsley his self, as a matter of fact he was from Cudworth. also parkinson has had his own show for years now so u must be behind quite a lot.
