| Celebrity Lum Shelter |
| In this week's Lum shelter, we have a special treat for you, the voice of Scotsport and Rangers, Archie Mcpherson. "I have to say there is no greater moment than cracking open a twenty deck of Benson & Hedges and luxuriating in their thick, rich, reek, while "woofing-up" the latest wayward strike at the visitors goal." "Football comentary has taken me all round the world. I remember in my years between BBC and ITV when I was regarded as a has-been comentator. I was working part-time for Eurosport comentating on highlights of some game in Ethiopia between two tribes." "When I say, all round the world, I mean I've comentated on games all round the world. I spent tweleve hours a week in a studio in Glasgow, proclaiming "betta balls" and "double-shoufles" to a rabble of Addidas-trackies." "I was at quite a low eb then. The fortunes I had made from the BBC and after diner speaches was all but gone, it was then that I started buying Lambert & Butlers, a good value Lum but not the high standard of snout that I am used to." "Things went further down hill as the paltry part-time wage was consumed further by an addiction to cough medicine after a nasty bout of some throat soreness. It was then that I started looking for half spent nippers on my way to the studio." "I would spend my time in the comentary booth, rolling up a tobacco cocktail while meandering off meaninglessly about the game I was supposed to be watching." "But all that is in the past now, and now I am back in my rightful place at Ibrox." |
