A few years ago, someone told me an allegedly true story about Peters and Lee and a Scottish folksinger. For those, who don't know them, Lenny Peters and Diane Lee were a singing duo who won a TV talent show and went on to fame and fortune. Lenny, who was blind, was apparently a really friendly guy who was very popular and got on with everyone. Diane was very starry and thought she was a cut above the rest. This Scottish folksinger happened to be staying at the same hotel as them. On his last morning there, he went over and sat down and said to Lenny, "You should get rid of her and get yourself a guide dog and call yourself 'Peters and Rover.'
I think Tam Harvey may have been the folksinger. Does anyone know for sure?
