Spot on with that Bob. I'm feeling really old now given that I can remember seeing this first showing.

Abso-bloody-lutely. You couldn't help but laugh along with him, even if what was on the tv wasn't even funny.

Love listening to his summaries of footy matches on Radio 5.
Some of them bear no resemblance to football whatsoever.

I remember Eddie Waring doing commentaries on this programme. The games were ludicrous, Stuart Hall was just manic, but Eddie always struck me as fish out of water.

That made me smile.

The man was brilliant on the footy commentary. He obviously saw something on the pitch others didn't. What a wordsmith.
