Not me but a friend of mineIs from Vancouver, called Mike, and isn't overly aware of UK TV goings-on, despite my giving him copies of Peep Show, Spaced and such. He has an uncle who lives near Southampton, and he and his immediate family went to visit last Xmas.
So come New Year's Eve he breaks away from the family bosom and goes to get shit-faced in London with fellow fixed gear cyclists (I told you he's from Vancouver). Back in China, he was telling me about it.
"It was awesome!" He's enthusiastic like that. He even thinks the Star Wars prequels are good. "I got drunk with a famous actor!"
"Ooh, who?" I asked.
"I don't remember... but after the guy left everybody told me how famous he was!"
"Well, what was he in?!"
"I don't remember! But it's really popular!"
"Mmmkay... so what does he DO?"
"He sits in a chair and shouts!"
"YOU GOT DRUNK WITH FATHER JACK?!"
A swift Google Image search confirms that my friend Mike had indeed got drunk with Frank Kelly.
