The soothsayers are predicting Spanish Len won't return until mid December though.

What's the big bright star currently over the Isle of Wight?

I'm struggle to believe there's 3 wise men and a virgin, over there.

There's a programme about this on BBC2 at 9:15.

That is all.

Don't remember seeing Iseya-Seki in 1965; Halleys was a wash-out or more accurately a cloudout in 1986; Hale-Bopp in 1997 was good though.

Ison has come from the Oort cloud, a belt of comets on the very edge of the Solar System, where it has been for the last 4.6 billion years.
Blimey :eek:

This one won't be as good as any of those, sadly.

RIP dear ISON

Liked Icarus you ventured too close......

Although I never met you, I feel like I knew you thanks to the media coverage. Maybe Elton will write a tune about you one day? My loss is deep and I will learn the lesson you failed to. Don't **** with the Sun!
