Tim Brooke-Taylor steps into Michael Palin's shoes as an 'uninvited' addition to the comedy troupe.
Director: Daphne Shadwell
Overview
With Michael Palin off having his appendix removed, we welcome an βuninvited guestβ: Tim Brooke-Taylor, stepping out of one Rediffusion studio (where he was shooting At Last The 1948 Show) and into another to join the Do Not Adjust Your Set team, pausing only to slip into something more comfortable.
