    Jethro got to the pearly gates, St Peter looked at him, gently nodded his head and smiled.....and Jethro said "What happened was...." R.I.P. Jethro. Thanks for the laughs.

    met Jethros agent once who told me how the Des O ' Connor show first came about. An American comedian pulled out of one of Des's show the day before it was due to be recorded. The agent knew Des personally and had been asking him to find a sport for Jethro - who at the time was not known outside of Cornwall - and so Des rang him and said that if Jethro could get to the recording immediately then he could take the spot. The rest is history
