It’s fair to say that friend of the Bar Gary Monaghan has made his fair amount of rubbish television (I think he basically admits as much) but at the same time he’s also been responsible for lots of quite groundbreaking exciting stuff like Banzai<\/strong>. Judge for yourself which is which on Mad Monk’s new site<\/a>, featuring clips from shows that have made it to air and perhaps more interestingly, the pilots that didn’t. Some of which are a bit rude, so be warned.<\/p>\n

I’m mildly thrilled to discover he worked on (in fact featured prominently in)\u00a0TV Mayhem<\/em> with Chris Evans<\/a> because it was brilliant and I don’t know of anyone else who remembers it.<\/p>\n

In other news here’s an episode of Give Us A Clue<\/strong> starring Celebrity Big Brother<\/strong>‘s Lionel Blair from 1979. Michael Aspel would have made a brilliant Professor Layton, no?<\/p>\n
