[@kieronmcnulty6177]

Brilliant essayist. A borderline national treasure.

[@fredbloggs8072]

His programs are a joy. A splendid mix of fascinating facts, subjective opinions (that make you think even if you don't agree with them), and dry humour.

[@DaveSCameron]

I'm so excited by this chap and his work, many thanks Jonathan.

[@NunsAllowed]

If you keep watching your vocabulary will grow. I do, I am finding my scope of terminologies much huger than wot it was once.

[@DaveSCameron]

Ere, you takin the piss?

[@fredbloggs8072]

The choirboy singing Bat Out of Hell in the church made me laugh

[@kernel2006]

Love it! I wish I had so extensive a vocabularly as him, and mine isn't exactly insubstantial.

[@DaveSCameron]

He's unique certainly;)

[@LambChowder1]

johnathan says in one of his episodes characters exist despite their absence; anna karenina is the example he uses

[@DaveSCameron]

...... point being?

[@kernel2006]

Yeah, I find quite a lot of words he uses, I can guess what they mean but before I'd heard him say them, I didn't even know they were words, eg Ossuary.

[@NunsAllowed]

But she just won't admit it.
