DAVID: Terribly sorry ladies and
gentlemen. We seem to be having
some interference from a pirate
station, in fact you are in Do Not
Adjust Your Set, though there seems
to have been a slight technical
hitch. Well this week it's my
turn to be rude about the Bonzos,
and I've thought of a jolly rude
thing to say about them......
they're not very good....(DASHES
