Rubbing shoulders with stars

Dear Martin Lewis,

I just wanted to let you know that I have added you to
the largest visual media database in the world, the
Internet Movie Database. You will see a brand new
page devoted to you here:
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1753039/

I did this to help you get wider recognition
everywhere. To me you are the most entertaining thing
about Radio 2, and I always ensure that I stay in for
my lunch breaks on the days you appear! I think you
are doing an amazing service, especially providing so
much for free, and I thought you deserved something in
return. Please check out your page and let me know if
you are happy with it.

I look forward to hearing you today on Jeremy Vine!

Kind regards and best wishes for a stress-free
Christmas
Dez

  • Kudos indeed, Martin! The IMDb is world famous and read by zillions. You deserve to be there. ;D

    Well that will cost you a $35 one-off fee . . . but might add to your recognition - does that count as money saving? ;)

    Great idea Vande, I refer to IMDB quite a lot and as you say is used widely by zillion's. ;D

    He's not that stupid. (he's not stupid at all, but, you know what I mean, nobody is going to fall for that).
