He politely declined, saying he couldn't keep up with the others.

    Love the surreal world of Bill Bailey (Hon. Dr). Great comedian, songwriter and performer. I fall to bits when he grabs the tobacco pipe he used in the show when mocking Stephen over class. Highly clever guy who is a ecologist and conservationist. He like Alan has supported animal rights and is a lepidopterist.
