I used to listen to Boothby when he had a radio show on Radio Lincolnshire in the late 80's. He used to sing songs written with a guy called Syd Meets, where he would regale us with songs about snails, and Francine Stock (are the pearls real or mock?). Glad to see some Boothby on Youtube.
Great job! I was too far away to see Boothby's face as he did this song, so this is fantastic. Plus seeing Alan Doyle's reactions make it even better for me. Thanks!
not seen this in a while - truly funny!!!!!!
