The TV That Made Me

Comedian Stephen K Amos joins Brian Conley to look back at the classic TV that shaped him into one of Britain's funniest men. From the slightly surreal singing pig pop stars Pinky and Perky to the terrifying, spine-tingling Tales of the Unexpected, by way of the stunningly gorgeous entertainer Danny La Rue, Stephen's early television influences are wide and varied - but why does he believe he owes his entire career to TV adverts for vacuum cleaners?
