Kermit the Frog on park bench in Madrid
For as long as I can remember, I have loved The Muppets.
Their wild anarchy, energy and good-natured wise-cracking was a breath of fresh air, compared to the rather po-faced and dull home-grown TV programmes.
Bill and Ben, or Animal, Kermit and Miss Piggy? No contest.
What great ambassadors they are for their country. They project a fun-loving, diverse, warm and welcoming America.
They are, in my view, one of America's greatest exports of all time.
So imagine my delight when - in Madrid of all places - I saw the doyen of all anchors, Kermit the Frog, hanging out on a park bench.
