I didn't think it was all that long ago. It was at the time DEFRA shut Britain because of bird flu and Blackpool Show was cancelled but reprieved at last minute.

 

Nichols didn't come across too well, he was left with pigeons that he couldn't get to Sun City. He set up Europa shortly afterwards.

 

Programme no longer available to view, this is the link and a small bit of the story.
