      I would have been only seven months old and in the pram at the time! Too young to understand or remember that period first time round!

    It'll be 22 years in August since we lost my Grandad, Mum's Dad. Daft as it sounds I've literally just wiped a tear from my eye thinking of the old lad.

    That girl who is in the picture at 2:21 must have been about 14 at the time. That would mean she is now 66 and old enough to be a grand mum and old enough to have a granddaughter of 14.

      I was just seven months old and in the pram at the time (now 54!). Corporal Jones with his grandchildren, minus the bayonet. They don't like it up them any more than the Fuzzy Wuzzies do. Perhaps he was reminiscing about his martial career!

    Written by the living legend that is Herbie Flowers. Clive was only 51 when he recorded this, he really was great at acting older than his actual age.

    Excruciatingly, skin crawlingly embarrassing. Its hard to imagine how Clive Dunn could have done this.
    Still, I suppose most people will do almost anything, however degrading if they are paid enough. Oh dear.
