        Denis Norden came in to do a voice over at a studio I worked at in London. We were all a bit nervous as we knew his pedigree. He insisted on making us all cups of tea and told us about a new comic he'd discovered who he thought would be really big. He was right too. Lovely chap.

        He told us to keep an eye out for Dom Joly. He was going to be a big star. This was before Trigger Happy TV!
