Lindsey was recording the series Seconds Out.
Ex husband was his sparring partner and 'opponent' for some of the recordings.
I was going out to get some tea for us watching rehearsals and Lindsey asked if I'd get him one too.
Got in a lift - Corbett was there and another actor called Ken Jones (looks like Rab C doing the Hamlet ads). Think he was in a sitcom called Squirrels.
Anyhoo, lift ground to a halt and we all stood in embarrassing silence.
Except I had Doolally Dave with me (don't ask).
Frantic emergency button pressing ensued.
We all got out alive.

Oh but I want to....
Right, well, Doolally Dave was a bit like Trigger in OFAH.
Not all the ticket and no one actually knows who he originally was chums with.
But he turned up out of the blue, no word of warning, no pre arranging, at loads of gigs, shows and gatherings.
No one knew where he lived and no one had his phone number.
He spoke to everyone as though he'd known them for donkey's years.
I was "Choochy" and he called all the men "Geezer"
He always had a fancy camera around his neck.
He had a press badge on him when we were at the beeb.
I've never seen him take a photo, ever. But he's the only bloke I've ever known blag his way backstage to practically EVERY thing 
He was the brother of Shotgun Christie but had a cockney accent.
Christie was a Scouser...

hahahahaha... I'm going to bookmark that to read anytime life seems to make sense.
I thought I'd told that story elsewhere once before?
And it makes sense if you were there

ahh.. long ago and far away perhaps. My memory isn't what it used to be! It's made me laugh again anyway.
