Dud & Pete save the series

[Eric The Viking]

Tragic that our lads are no longer able to avail themselves of this sort of help.

Young Geoffrey should be reminded of this event every time he commentates...

Dud, Pete, Barry Humphries? What's not to like? Anyway two masterful bits of music from Dud and the clothes shop sketch (the impressario didn't seem as funny as other versions, for some reason, but hey).

Happy Christmas anyway!

PS: As one old lag to another, did you notice the vignetting on some of the studio stuff? Amazingly bad. I assume ABC at the time was using Marconis III or EMI 201s (or simlar), and that something was off with the turret alignment, as it seemed to move around -- some lenses were fine. Maybe they thought it would be in cutoff...
