The centrepiece of 1988 – the original TV spectacular – was the sketch show "73 of a Kind". Apart from Henry, Rhys Jones, Ross, French, Saunders, Enfield et al, it featured at least 73 stars, everyone ranging from Sue Cook, Valerie Singleton, Phillip Schofield and Nick Ross, to Geoffrey Palmer, Penelope Keith, Ralph Bates and Martin Shaw, plus Kenny Everett, Tony Robinson, Celia Imrie and Gorden Kaye. Even Melvyn Bragg made an appearance as himself, in a South Bank Show spoof guest starring Timothy Spall as a pissed-artist.
