Behind the Scenes

Ah, the episode where it all begins. Cos it's the beginning. And it naturally starts with Helen Daniels.

A lynchpin of the programme, Helen Daniels always seemed to be getting into trouble and I'm sure that, more than once, she fell off a sofa.

But is more noticeable is the mysterious arrival of "Martin Daniels" and "Harold Wilson", both who appeared in the script pretty much cos I got names mixed up. Martin Daniels was supposed to be Philip Martin but I got mixed uo, whilst Harold Wilson was there because I momentarily muttered the wrong name and decided using a now-deceased prime minister would be funny.
