Edward Felix Tudor-Pole is an English musician, television presenter and actor. Originally gaining fame in the United Kingdom in the late 1970s as the lead singer of the punk rock band Tenpole Tudor, Tudor-Pole began an acting career following the group's split in 1982. Outside of his music career Tudor-Pole is probably best known in the UK as the presenter...

Don't fret, Maggie. Easily done.

I enjoyed Pointless tonight. It was a good show I thought.
I feel like a twit too, but I couldn't eat a whole one...
Whenever I hear of Tenpole Tudor I think of the second presenter of The Crystal Maze - Edward Tudor-Pole.
That'd be Ted Tudor-Pole then Hoppy?
It was Tent Pole Tudor Maggie. A nickname for Edward Tudor-Pole. For obvious reasons if you saw pictures of him in his "tight" pants. Haha.
Same man Hopkirk.

Well blow me down, you learn something new every day.
Did anyone else enjoy this episode, Tent Pole aside?

Mentioned my AB post to my son tonight and he gave me a history lesson about Ed Tudor-Pole. Was able to say "yes, I know most of that". Thanks Togo.
