      The title mentions 1979, this interview is also from that year. Going by the introduction by Gay it seems they came to an agreement to come back.

    They knew Oliver was an alcoholic but there was a steady supply of booz to his dressing room. Concluding that would get the station more viewers. I cannot speak for them but if I knew a person was a alcoholic I would never offer that person a drink.

      Here's a link to the show (that I think was being inferred to):

    I guess they were reminiscing because Ollie had just died? Pretty pointless without a single clip of the actual event, his guest appearance. Telling you he brought down Susan George is not the same as seeing it. Don't they have VT in Ireland?!
    I'm pretty sure the moustachioed berk who keeps tweaking his sweaty nose and laughing at his own jokes is a guy called Colman Hutchinson. He was obviously a humble researcher on the Gaye Burne show back in the eighties, but he later moved to London and inexplicably rose to success as executive producer on 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire'.
    He was last seen running his own shitty TV production company - its biggest claim to fame a flop TV quiz show hosted by Jeremy Kyle (before Kyle cause a guest to top himself, and ITV dropped him faster than a bad vindaloo).
    Hutchinson's biggest success? He finally ditched that grotty 'tache!
