Anyone else here remember the programme where TV chef Gary Rhodes flying on a Fat Albert to Akrotiri in the late 80s. He cooked the Crew a meal in flight in the oven (warmed up some pies?) on the way there, and was then supposed to be filmed cooking kebabs with Chris the kebab man down on the strip. Except that he got so w@nkered on brandy sours in the Officers Mess at happy hour, he couldn't even boil an egg. So they filmed him ''avin a laff" with the crew in Chris' Kebab House instead.
I gather the scene where he made a pavement pizza was cut from the final version!
Also, does anyone else remember the packets of "Benson's Crisps" without a sell by date in the bimble boxes provided in MPA? I think I still have some stuck between my teeth ten years later.
