On Thursday 16 May 1963 The Beatles made their second appearance on national BBC television, on his show "Pops And Lenny."
Terry's wife has some terrific stories about house parties with Morecambe and Wise etc.

Thanks for that Neil,
It's a shame Lenny couldn't carry on. There must be a few 'characters' without their masters (for want of a better word) now.

I can remember that he had a very firm handshake (for a lion). I had a photograph showing Lenny, Terry, and me (complete with my school cap), although I don't know if I still have it. |
