        Ha! Yes, I remember the sketch well - so it was lovely to see it recreated with a slight twist :heehee:

        Didn't think JC was looking in peak health though - even taking his age into account. Still, it's good to see him on our screens :thumbsup:

        Mrs Scrungee was at school with his friend's (another major 'celeb') daughter, and got to meet him (plus Alan Bennett).
