Ditto to all the above and more....Milligan tells of his first meeting with Secombe - or was it the other way round? Nevermind.
Anyway one of them had somehow lost a field gun (cannon) when they were in the army. Bumping into the each other the converstaion went -
"'scuse me have you seen a field gun pass this way?"
"Not sure - what colour was it?"
Classic stuff that legends are made of.
Heaven is now a better place...
