Subject: RE: Obit: Hubert Gregg
I remember Tommy Handley & Jack Train singing a version of 'I'm going to get lit up' as follows, singer indicated by initials at beginning of line:-

(JT)I'm going to get lit up when the lights go up in London
(TH)I seem to have heard that kind of sentiment before
(JT)I'll be feeling doubly frisky
(TH)Did you say a double Whisky?
(JT)My dear sir when the peace breaks out I'll drink the Bay of Biscay!
(TH)It's going to be a simply marvellous occasion
(JT)I'll be lit up then and so I think will you
(TH)Too true! I'll be pickled as a parrot
(JT)Did you say a glass of claret! Well thank you sir, I don't mind if I do!

All the great names are going an who will replace them?
