We're going to Wem-ber-leeee

I have lived in Blackpool for many years now, and it's great to see Blackpool FC doing so well. They are one match away from Premiership football, and I'm going to be there cheering them on. I'll be making my way down to London with thousands of others from Blackpool. So if you're going too, let's make some noise and cheer the lads on. Everyone is getting quite excited in Blackpool. I even did an interview on Sky Sports News today, so "Come on you Tangerines!"

Holidays, Ash and Celtic

Hi,

I'm back from my break in Tenerife, I made it back just in time. I had to be back for a gig at Warner's Alvaston Hall. This is a great venue for me to do. I have known Bob Roberts, the Entertainments Manager for a long time, so we get the chance to catch up. Also, the band are old friends, so we just have a fun night. I left the wife and family over there in Tenerife, but the Volcanic Ash has stopped them from getting home. If anyone is passing Tenerife in a private luxury yacht, and heading back to the UK with some free space, call me!!!!

Last Sunday, I had the pleasure of entertaining at The Celtic Player of The Year Awards at The Thistle Hotel in Glasgow. It was a great evening, and I'd like to thank Tony Hamilton and Celtic FC for their fine hospitality.

Hope everyone is OK and not too inconvenienced by the ash!

Holiday Time

I have finished filming today, and I am going to have a short break from tomorrow. Can't wait for my 2 weeks of doing nothing!

I just want to thank everyone involved in making this series of IDEAL. This has been the most enjoyable series that I have been involved with. Johnny Vegas has become a great friend, and I really admire him as an actor. The rest of the cast have been fantastic, but we would be nowhere without Graham Duff who writes it brilliantly.

So, thank you to Gill Isles and all at Baby Cow Productions and everyone at BBC Manchester, not forgetting the crew who work incredibly hard to get the best out of us all.

I'll be back after my short break.

Sport Relief

Here is the poster for the Sport Relief Football match on Saturday 20th March.

Hope you can get along to support it.

Filming and Charity!

Hi all,

I've been having fun on the set of "IDEAL." I can't tell you the story line, but needless to say, it's well up to the high standards that have been set up to now. I think that this is going to be the best series so far.

Now, to the charity bit. The Royle Family's Ricky Tomlinson has asked me to be part of his annual charity show at the Liverpool Empire on Wednesday, 17th March. Various charities will benefit from the proceeds and it will be a great night out. This year, it will be a Country & Comedy Show, and will feature Raymond Froggatt, Kevin "Curly Watts" Kennedy, Michael Starke, Crissy Rock, Me and many others. Tickets are available from the box office.

Finally, The "IDEAL" cast and crew will be taking on a team from "Corrie," "Emmerdale" & "Waterloo Road" in a football match in aid of Sport Relief. It will be at Man. City's training ground on 20th March. I will post more details when I get them.

Take Care,

Mick

BBC Radio Lancashire

Hi everyone. I've just got home after doing an interview on the Ted Robbins Show on BBC Radio Lancashire. Ted is an old friend, who is also a great comedian. Some of you will know him as Den Perry in Phoenix Nights. The good thing about comedians who turn into interviewers, is that they know how to get the best out of you. You feel that you are in friendly company and it doesn't feel like you are in a Police interview room!

We had a really good chat about all sorts. I even did the "Noddy" routine by special request. At the end of the show, Ted told me that they had had a lot of emails and texts, saying how much they had enjoyed the chat.

If you are not in the BBC Lancashire area, or missed the show, it's available by going to the BBC Radio Lancashire website. Then look through the presenters and find Ted Robbins. Then click on "Listen Again." You then need to find "Friday 12th February 2010." My bit starts just after 1hr 12mins in.

Have a listen. This link should take you there. Copy and paste it into your address bar.

Keep well, speak soon.
