The experts’ expert on Give Us A Clue, was Lionel Blair. Who can ever forget opposing team captain Una Stubbs sitting open-mouthed as he tried to pull off Twelve Angry Men in under two minutes!
But who can ever forget the tears of frustration in his eyes during the show's Italian tour at not being allowed the use of his mouth to finish off Two Gentlemen of Verona.

"And we have some more here: walking on the cracks in the pavement, walking in a loud shirt in a built-up area during the hours of darkness and walking around with an offensive wife. In short, Savage, in the space of one month you’ve brought 117 ridiculous, trumped-up and ludicrous charges... against the same man"

"Sir, are you absolutely sure? It does mean changing the bulb"

"Let me tell you something about the Titanic: people forget that on the Titanic’s maiden voyage there were over 1000 miles of uneventful, very pleasurable cruising before it hit the iceberg."

So many to select from this sketch, I adore this …. right down my comedy alley.

“Luxury. We used to have to get out of the lake at three o'clock in the morning, clean the lake, eat a handful of hot gravel, go to work at the mill every day for tuppence a month, come home, and Dad would beat us around the head and neck with a broken bottle, if we were LUCKY!”.

Ah. Constable Savage.

'Yes, Sir.'

Especially for an old git like me the range is huge, Pike, the Andre Previn sketch has more than one line in it worthy of a mention and Fletcher also had some great lines.

Couple of favourites, Vim Fuego in Bad News “Answer that, and stay fashionable”

Clinton Baptiste “I’m getting the word, Nonce”
