Pudsey Come Home?

Monday, May 14, 2012 FEATURE: Can Pudsey Walk In The Pawprints Of These Furry Film Stars? "He's already got himself a book deal," was how a delighted Simon Cowell announced the arrival of his latest protege on the world stage. In case you were hiding under a nice, cool stone somewhere at the weekend, Pudsey (along with some tag-on by the name of Ashleigh or something or other), was the triumphant winner of Britain's Got Talent, not to forget the quiet collector of a cheque to the tune of £500k - let's hope that doesn't get chewed to smithereens in all the excitement.

Philip White: Where the Wild Things Are, Tollins and Other Books My Five-Year-Old Adores Sendak is not the only children's author who has become a firm favourite on the fit-to-burst shelves that line the walls of the living room, my home office and both my son's bedrooms.

And Not Just Because Of Betty Any episode that prominently features Betty is a lesser episode of "Mad Men."
