  8. Blue Box Blunder?

    "Hmm...I've gone over this question in my mind so many times. He was a damn good actor and one of the nicest people I've ever met. I think it was because of the fact that the show had been hijacked by the Americans and that the British side was feeling put to one side....he and I fought the...

  13. No Scarves Or Hats
