An interesting list, Gev. Here's mine, though i've not
been watching as long as you evidently ;o) In no
particular order. And as much for entertainment value
as outright winners.

Chris Wills
Graham Nash
Julian Fell
Stewart Holden
John Davies
Loz Sands
Tanmay Dixit
Jon O'Neill
John Mayhew
Andrew Tatham (He was just gorgeous ;-0)

That's about it really!

Cheers
