  ..I'm astonished.

  "Is this the way to Amarillo" was a hit for Tony Christie in 1971. Now, the same version is top of the UK charts yet again, 34 years later! What's more, the singer is actually a Yorkshireman whose never set foot in Texas!

  Agreed!Surely Britains funniest Comedian of recent times....and so down to Earth..his Missus still works in Boots apparently....despite him being worth over £10 Million.

  ...and he finally bought his Mum that Bungalow.....

  As for the "amarillo" song.God i hate it!
