Thanks every time, Paul. You might be interested in this - the BBC are showing old 'Play for Today' episodes at the moment, one of which was Horace Ove's 'Hole in a Babylon' about the Spaghetti House siege in Kensington. I watched it decades ago when it came out but was amazed to notice this time the scene shot in a blues - none other than Dr Alimantado at the controls! I watched the credits carefully, but he doesn't get a mention... The selector behind him: you'll probably be able to tell us who that is...it foxed me!
i'll have to look on iplayer.. the small axe series has been very good, can't believe the bbc aired them at primetime & not bbc2 late at night! maybe there's hope for the beeb yet! thanks for the heads up BT
