Talking of the Navy Lark, didn't the actor who played Captain Povey do a Tabu short about a duel where he got his cock shot off. If it wasn't him it was someone who looked remarkably like him.

No it wasn't Stephen Murray, it was Richard Caldicott. Stephen Murray was quite a distinguish actor, did a lot of plays by Terence Rattigan, I believe. Incidentally one member of the cast is still very active as an actor, Tenial Evans.

There were lots of references to things being 'bona' (spelling? a possible double entendre there) and 'lallies'. No to mention 'Ooh, inne bold?'

Tenial Evans now reminds me very much of Barry Humphreys in appearance. saw him very recently in something, possibly Midsomer Murders.
