'My Auntie Mabel told me I'd make a great soldier, though I don't know how 30 years working in a biscuit factory had qualified her to make that judgement.....' Eddie Nugent
One of my all-time favourites (along with Spike Milligan and Peter Sellers).
I did a double-take while watching old Dave Allen shows on You Tube a few weeks ago. He cut to one of his sketches and there was a guy I used to go to school with! I had forgotten he used to be an 'extra' actor in Dave's sketches. He also had a supporting role in one of Ronnie Corbett's solo series but can't remember which now but it might have been 'Sorry'.

If you've not seen him before Brian look him up on You Tube. He was well known for his religious irreverence on both the Catholic and Protestant sides of the fence which given the old 'troubles' in NI and the fact he's obviously Irish could have caused him some 'issues' (and possibly did).
