New Film (Not!) Happy April Fool's Day!
Patrick Kidd, sports writer for The Times is mad on cricket and seems to think Ioan would make a great Freddie Trueman (much loved English cricketer and commentator)......I was fooled (and quite excited) until I read the whole article and realised what day it is! :roll:
.....with Daniel Radcliffe, the star of the Harry Potter films, being lined up to play another young magician: Geoffrey Boycott in his maiden Test series.
The film, provisionally entitled Ashes!, will also feature Ioan Gruffudd, left, as Fred Trueman, Ray Winstone as Ken Barrington and Russell Crowe as Bob Simpson.

of course, the fact that the blog above this one concerns the return of Toon (Newcastle United) hero Alan Shearer, as manager/saviour from relegation, makes it all the more spooky.......could there be a grain of hope.......? NO! It's just too funny!!!!!!!! :tongue:
I can see how that could fool you,Stevie. All sounds quite proper.........................
Too bad if it's a joke, but nice that Ioan gets a mention and I would guess a chuckle out of it.
I think I would have been fooled, too, if I had read the article without you pointing it is a joke before starting, Linz.
Anyway, as GG said, it's nice Ioan was mentioned.
