"There is this mysterious cult who think Edd China is some sort of god. No, I'm not one of them, but they do seem to have it in for Ant and not giving him a chance."
I remember in the late 80s/early 90s when the only reason I watched F1 was because Senna was in it. How fabulous he was. When I wouldn't book a holiday unless there was a guaranteed telly showing F1 on the Sunday. Senna this, Senna that. Then he was killed and I spent a year in mourning, vaguely hoping that Hill would take the championship. But wow, wasn't Schumacher fantastic? And very quickly, the only reason I was watching F1 was because Schumacher was in it.
I enjoyed Edd China in WD, he was fantastic, I learned a lot from what he could do and it's a shame he's gone. But that Ant, he's fabulous isn't he? Really enjoy what he does. Etc. etc. etc.
It's like Blue Peter presenters and Dr Who. There's always someone, waiting to fill the vacuum. And they're usually as good as the last even if they're different.
