You just need to re-arrange the two names mentioned so yes very much known, I did wonder if this whole topic may therefore need moving to another section?

Ah I see.
And no it won't be moved to another section, because one of the people who took the record has chosen to no longer post on this forum, so therefore he no longer gets posts pertaining to his efforts moved around.

And coincidental that the girl that did the Eggheads audition was in the carriage when we did an interchange in Central London a few weeks later on a full network and also that when I got the call from Eggheads initially about the audition I was sat on a Central Line loop train supporting one of Andi's attempts, somehow it all seems intertwined
