Aha,no hadn't caught up with Neil Purvis. But I can see how my winter Sundays are going to be spent!

Okay sorry, Watkin isn' in that episode – but I think he was in some of them – great to see Chchch's own Henry Sunderland gnoted gnomologist and Rob Muldoon in there though...

Can anyone place the still on the UTR page? I love that reference to the late great (very recently) departed Ian Watkin and was reminded of his involvement in BLERTA – and started watching segments the madcap Pythonesque [[https://www.nzonscreen.com/title/blerta-revisited-2001 |…

That phrase was Chris’s description of me from his introduction to the Rock Strips comic

Ian, we both know you only looked puny.
