@crossleydd42 - my mate and I had trouble holding the heavy spotlights steady. Mr. McGuffie was not happy and snapped at us. When I saw the fire I tightened it to nip down and tell the ratty flight sergeant (Got the spelling right this time)

@silverstartrucker

Now you do bring back memories with Bill McGuffie, a very underrated jazz pianist.

[crossleydd42]

I always recall him on BBC radio when he held his one-way phone conversations and his saying 'Just a minute, just a minute'!.

Reg did a concert once at RAF Halton nr Aylesbury. I was on the spotlights as Bill McGuffie the pianist did his act. I saw smoke coming from under the stage so quickly nipped to the Flight Sargent's office. He was having a drink with Reg. He snapped...What is it Dale...Excuse me Flight Sargent, the stage is on fire...WHAT, WHAT, PANIC, PANIC, Reg nearly dropped his drink. The small fire was soon put out.

I've been looking for this for ages, and a fellow YouTuber pointed me in this direction. Many thanks for posting and filling a small hole in my collection.
