Farewell

One of JAM's most regular - and most silent - participants is about to finish with the show.

Janet Staplehurst has been blowing the whistle and keeping score at Nicholas's side since 1999 and has now blown the whistle more often than anyone since the show's founder Ian Messiter.

An interesting point - since Ian signed off, no male has had their lips on the whistle. Could a man be Janet's replacement? On history it seems unlikely, but surely in this day and age there is no reason why these positions should be regarded as a job for a woman?
