The latest info is that Mike Parr is going to be part of a walking team which is just a mix of various people.
The team is not going to \\"do Mount Everest\\". Any of the team do not seem in reality, as yet for me anyway, to have the talent, experience, fitness, endurance, etc, to conquer the summit of Everest at 29,029ft (8,848m). The team are just going to trek to just beyond Everest base camp, to \\"Kala Pattar\\" , about 5,645m (about 17,000ft) and well below Everest's summit and really below \\"real climbing\\" position, so team members are really going to have a (maybe/probably externally sponsored) slog of a walk in snowland to base camp. Just put one foot in front of the other yourself and hired sherpas will carry the bulk of the personal load for every \\"grand guy\\", probably sponsored guy there on work-paid annual leave time? Blag, blag, blag!
Of course, the publicity yesterday suggested something much more. So really much more blagging, yet again. (so really what's new before NTA awards?)
This is totally meant to be a soapboards thread for spoilers about Ross Barton in Emmerdale.
This thread was never ever meant to be a soapbox for mikefan people to post actor-personal things on.
There really should be a Mike Parr/Ross Barton Appreciation Thread in the General Forum of Emmerdale soapboards. I will start this myself right now.
