OFF: Lemmy radio programme/Last Laugh

[Kevin Perry]

There was: it was a serial on Radio 2 that was really, really bad - no, it
wasn't an adaptation of TotH - that would have been (marginally - it's a
lousy story, and as for Queens of Deleria...) better!  Lemmy was the really
whingy character (if I recall rightly) who was the engineer.
