Press clippings

"How's Your Father?" Ah, now you don't really want me to tell you? Once in a Gardener's Question Time programme the expert said of an offending marrow that it was "mouldy at its distal end and soggy at its centre." I don't quite know what it means but it always sounds to me an excellent all purpose curse. And somehow true about rather a lot of TV comedy.

Nancy Banks-Smith, The Guardian, 25th July 1974
