MONDAY, TUESDAY, HAPPY DAYS…
BBC’s deputy political editor James Landale was out and about in London doing vox pops for the 6 o’clock news when he stopped Henry Winkler (AKA The Fonz) for an interview. The Happy Days actor is currently in London appearing in a pantomime.

You can watch the full interview on Landale’s BBC blog – he says the meeting wasn’t a set up, but a complete surprise. Given his reaction, we are entirely certain of that.
