Explosive Money Box

:T Heard moneybox yesterday (RADIO 4). Martin left 'em for dead. Clearly a man who is passionate about his subject.

Martin nearly swore on Radio 4... :j

The regular presenter didn't stand a chance.

My only worry is burnout Martin!! What would we do without you :confused:

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I never heard it, what happened? I remember seeing a programme with Martin on it recently and he tore the interviewee up, some woman from the banking world, Angela Knight I think it was, was about loan insurance. I certainly wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of Martin, like a Staffordshire Pit Bull with a bone.... (insert scarey smiley)

    Enjoyed the show. Martin did sound a bit manic! Martin's message (to me at any rate) was "Stop moaning about the dark and light a flippin' candle!"
    Anyway; is Paul Lewis Martins Dad?
