I met John Craven once. True story.

I was 11. Don't know what age he was at the time.

Did you hit it off.

Seemed like a nice bloke.

He came to our school to do a report on The Troubles.

My mate was on TV and made an absolute cawk out of himself. I've never let him forget that.

With you being Irish that's actually a bit ambiguous.

By the power of Google I now estimate that he was around 44 at the time.

John Craven, like, not my mate.

What age was John Craven at the time.

23.

Pish, John Craven was never 23

The good old days.

When all the news was good and John Craven was a god amongst childrens' news reporters. This was 1982 and 23 must have seemed like a distant dream to poor John.

The career mausoleum that would be Countryphile was yet to be conceived.
