Our most surreal example yet of an Eamonn sting: England rugby star Bill Beaumont is ambushed in Battersea Park by a phalanx of multi-coloured Minis, adorned with umbrella-twirling members of his Grand Slam team. The second clip shows Eamonn hiding behind a pillar at the National Theatre, waiting to spring out on Sweeney star John Thaw. Guests include his wife Sheila Hancock, plus Tony Selby, James Ellis, Diane Keen, Carol Drinkwater, Ian Hendry, Tom Courtenay and Richard Briers.
