Is this the end of the road for Pontins? Only three others are still working - although workers say they were dismissed by text as a result of the holiday company's closure

Staff at the Southport park site in Merseyside claim to have been told by text that they had only lost their jobs just hours before the shocking announcement was made. Storm Henk's latest flooding blamed on Pontins. "We've arrived at the difficult decision to close our doors after determining the park's future viability,' says the park's manager.' It comes after the parks in Preyn, North Wales, and Camber Sands in Sussex, were abruptly closed at the end of November, without warning, and the new closing has sparked serious concerns about the once much-loved family holiday. Pontins was purchased out of administration by Britannia Hotels for £20 million in 2011 with much promise from tycoon Alex Langsam, dubbed the 'Asylum King,' to resurrect the troubled parks into Disney-style seaside destinations. However, Britannia, the country's worst hotel chain for eleven years, has failed to stem the decline, despite the Home Office's recent announcement that the closed down parks would be used to house migrants.

A bite like a tiger, a slew of mischief, and a 21.4 million audience! Since the man of a thousand voices died at the age of 82, JON CULSHAW honors his mentor and mentor Mike Yarwood

Mike Yarwood was a pioneer. The errant pomposity of politicians has now been mistakenly dismantled, revealing the world that they are often both absurd and ridiculous. They may have been a hit on parody by day's reckoning. But they were certainly not on Saturday nights, when Mike enjoyed his golden age of comedy. The delight was that the characters he could choose from were all so eccentric - a wonderful palate to draw from as a comedian. He dismissed the belief that certain people, from monarchs to politicians, could not be impersonated. Everyone was fair game. Mike's greatest strength and imagination was deciding which to parody and which portions of their story to exaggerate.
