Bonus points … how many episode of the Young Ones?
Just the 12 episodes of Fawlty Towers.
One of my all time favourites.
No idea on the Young Ones as I never really took to it and have probably only ever seen 1 or 2 episodes in full

Leon Byner, 77.

Bad week to be an old talk back host.

WOW

Met him numerous times through a former business, some of the stories.

He use to see us with his “little orange boy”, before spray tanning became fashionable

Used to love how Leon Byner was always asked why he never went into politics. His answer was always "because the bureaucracy would not allow me to get as much done as I can on radio"
