Yes, I would, if I could have worked with Peter
Sellers, Spike Milligan and Harry Secombe on the
old BBC "Goon Show".  They were the absolutely
funniest
comedy group, bar none.  They are the source for the
term, "Golden Splonders", in a Christmas show they did
on Robin Hood.  In the skit, Prince John tells the
Sheriff of Nottingham that he will pay 100 golden
splonders reward for the capture of Robin Hood.  The
Sheriff tells the people that the reward is 1 golden
splonder.  Anyway, one of their albums is "Goon But
Not Forgotten".  And an earlier reference I made to
batter pudding hurling is also from one of their
skits.
