You’ve sent me down a rabbit hole regarding Senator Roy Kendall. Turns out he was a British MI6 officer sent to Australia during the war, who stayed on and became a newsagent before being elected. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roy_Ken...

Hooray! The only thing apparently worth saying about comedy - that it’s being gagged - is being said once again by someone who’s done absolutely fucking fine by being allowed to do whatever comedy he wanted in an extremely friendly environment that no longer exists, for purely economic reasons.

Peter Sellers appears in 'Do You Trust Your Wife?' on Christmas Day 1956. 'My Wife's Sister' follows after, although whether she can be trusted is unknown

Just remembered when I worked at Our Price we used the word 'ENBA' to describe a particularly calamitous Christmas party when several of us accidentally got stuck on a non-stop train to London and one of us had to pretend to be going into labour.
ENBA of course stood for 'Eighty-Nine Brit Awards'.

The Wrong Box - a 1966 historical crime caper movie starring pretty much anyone who was anyone in British comedy at the time, ancient and modern - is one of my absolute favorite movies, and here's a chat about exactly how much I love it...

The one where Seagoon is approached at the Athenæum Club by two chisellers, duped into believing he owns New York and paddles all the way there in a zinc bath tub to claim his birthright.

It doesn't go well.
