Today, 10 August, at "some point" between 9 a.m. and 12 p.m. BST - but probably after 10 - Charlie Higson will be interviewed on BBC Radio Five, ostensibly about his sitcoms but I guess there's a chance that Young Bond will creep in there. If you want to you can 'phone in - 0500 909 693 (from UK)

You can also email questions to him - [email protected]

I'd listen meself but I have to go to work.

For those outside UK, I think you can listen live from the BBC website - http://www.bbc.co.uk/fivelive/

Sometimes they archive interviews for a few days so if you don't manage to catch it you could probably listen later.

Call me stupid but I didn't know he was of Fast Show fame - grief!

So a writer of dark books who rattled through James Bond questions in the quiz show Mastermind.

Still think it is a stupid idea, of which Higson is not to blame obviously.

But a friendly and unassuming interviewee nonetheless.

This site has been pretty good lately though. Hopefully we'll see more with Higson.
