He was in talks with KM Video for putting a video to it. I've still a few of the singles lying about somewhere.

From Peter Tinniswood's 1999 radio play The Scan, a two hander written for Roy Hudd & Judy Cornwell;

 

The Patient (Hudd): I can't hang about here all night, I've got this bloke to meet. He's got a speedway bike he wants to flog. Aah, he used to ride for New Cross in the good old days. Him and Split Waterman, like that they were, blood brothers.

 

The Nurse (Cornwell): Would you like me to stay with you in the scan, I won't let it harm you, I won't let it make you cry.

 

The Patient: He knew 'em all, this bloke I've got to meet. Aub Lawson, Jack Parker, Ollie Langton, Vic and Ray Duggan, he knew 'em all......
