He's actually a company director. I'm sure you can guess of which company.


Technically a co-owner too. He has 5%.

I realise thats of YR but still. More than likely giving him a small share is mostly a tax thing but with a share of 5% he actually has some (very limited) powers over the company, didn't think Bates would risk such a thing.

Or is it so that Bates can have him as his little puppet, give him 5% of fuck all but makes him feel special therefore he will happily listen to and promote all the propaganda at the club.

Fuck I hate being this cynical :(

Apologies, it's 2.5%. According to the 2010 annual return, Fry has 75 shares of the total of 3000. Leeds City Holdings has 2850 shares and someone called Ruth Gregory has the other 75.

Melvyn Bragg and guests Frank Close, Jocelyn Bell Burnell and Ruth Gregory discuss the Vacuum of Space.

I'd wondered what kind of cunt really enjoys Flamingo Land. His carers look nice though.

The Evening Post have done a video of slideshow of pictures of the trip to Flamingo Land. Make sure you turn the volume right up.

it wouldn't surprise me if ken wrote it. all those overly direct, obviously unscripted, interview questions have made me squirm on any number of occasions.
