    The 'dish' has a 'red flash' on it, signifying that it was manufactured by the ANDREW Corp at their factory near, as they said, Edinburgh. The company, of which I was the UK Sales manager, were involved in organising this Beadle prank.

    There was one I remember from the 80's and it was about someone destroying a Violin that was worth a fortune but really the one that got broken was a copy that was cheap and the prank was meant to be on the owner of the Violin , but the actor that broke the Violin actually tricked Jeremy into thinking he destroyed the real expensive one by accident and Jeremy really panicked and stressed out. Id love to see that one again.
