The pictures are of Michael introducing Albert Lee & Hogan's Heroes and with the Mayor of Southwark (Councillor Paul Kyriacou and his wife).

I would like to say a big thank you to Gary Magold for his kind permission to place the photographs on to the web site. A big thank you must also go to Philip Burkett for not only forwarding me the details of what turned out to be a wonderful event., but also for bringing Michael 'home' to be with the people who love him.
