At Last! Some Little Chef News...

This nonsense redefines "silly season". I wonder if Alex Parkinson at Hill Grove PR could get me the exact number of "LISTENSERS" who "flooded Capital Radio’s lines" to tell Johnny Vaughan he was wrong about, oh, whatevah? Or, as an LiS reader puts it:

This is an extraordinarily hopeless release/email, but it could be the start of a fun new game. How about:

Robbie Williams delays album, REM "gutted"
Eddie "The Eagle" Edwards back in training, Usain Bolt "really worried"

JOHNNY VAUGHAN MISLEADS LISTENERS RE. LITTLE CHEF SHUT DOWN - HESTON BLUMENTHAL FURIOUS

Celebrity Chef Heston Blumenthal is furious that Johnny Vaughan told the 700,000 listeners of his Capital Radio show this morning that Little Chef, which is currently celebrating it’s YOU MEAN "ITS", RIGHT? 50th anniversary and has just announced a profit increase for Summer of over 8%, has shut down all of it’s YOU MEAN, "ITS", RIGHT? 170 restaurants with immediate effect. This is completely untrue. Infact YOU MEAN "In fact", RIGHT?, Little Chef launches a new restaurant today in Shiptonthorpe and Heston Blumenthal is currently filming what will be a hit series YOU KNOW THIS FOR A FACT? about Little Chef on Channel 4. Callers flooded Capital Radio’s lines during the show to inform Johnny Vaughan that Little Chef is very much alive and well. He is yet to apologise. I KNOW - LET'S HAVE HIM KILLED!
