No. Do you remember a puppet parrot that kept going "Cognac" ?

PS I do remember Kenny Everret's impression of Rod Stewart where his bum kept getting bigger.

I want to find a video of it, as we're putting it into a scene of this year's panto. I've tried Kenny Everett, Russ Abbott, Morcambe and Wise and the Two Ronnies. But no luck yet. I reckoned some of the older member here might remember.

What show was it on? e.g. Morecambe & Wise? Not that I'm suggesting it was that show. I assume the whole show wasn't entirely Tom Jones singing "Help yourself" with his arms getting longer, because the novelty would wear off after a few minutes.

That's what I'm trying to find out. Strongest contenders according to my failing memory are M&W or Kenny Everett. But drawn a blank on finding any record of it on t'internet.

Anyone remember a version of Tom Jones' "Help yourself", where the singer's arms get longer and longer?

Sounds like a comic relief to me.

I'll watch it on catchup after the kids are asleep.

I go upstairs get my long coat out, massive scarf, hat, packet of jelly babies and a picture of Adric(got rest his soul) then come back down and settle down.

Everything must be just so.

That's what I thought I'd do for the F1 qualifying. I've got my fire resistant underwear and helmet on ready to watch it on recorded, but have discovered that my video decided not to record again. I did catch a glimpse of what I thought was Coultard interviewing Schumacher when I was in town, and Eddie Jorden laughing when it ended. Might have been good and now I'll never know.

Are you sure it was Tom Jones? I can't find it.
