    Russ Abbot and company were, and still are, superb. So funny. Saw Madhouse on stage once and then met them all backstage afterwards, getting my album signed. Les called me a cutie (9 years old and was cute then!), Dustin ruffled my hair and Russ said I had a fabulous and catchy laugh and he had heard me whilst on the stage!!

    Ah those were the days. TV was about entertainment, comedy was funny, silly and even (god forbid) made you laugh. The perfect way to wind down in the evening.
    Now it's all satire, hatred and making you feel guilty. No wonder the world is such a sodding mess.
