Last Xmas a friend gave me a full box set of my favourite BBC comedy series "Yes Minister/ Yes Prime Minister". I think Derek Fowlds is the only cast member still alive.
Also loved the short-lived series about drug addled rock star "Gary Bloke". I thought it was satire until I saw Ozzie Osbourne and his family on TV.
Oh, my nick name at work was "Basil".
