Maybe Ben, who used to be a regular on here till very recently, could give you some advice?

You could email him, and ask. (Tell him I sent you.)

Chucked him a line, thanks for the tip

He couldn't help but he put a shout out on his twitter - nice guy

Jona Lewie's fan page got back to me and said they'd check their archive, but that was about a week ago.

Ben's cool. Wish he'd come back.

Jona seems like a cool dude too.

Bob Mortimer might be a bit too preoccupied right now to help, poor guy. Hope he has a speedy recovery.

Yeah...might leave that for a bit. I'm sure he'll be fine

Little update, Jona's page did get back to me a little while back and say that there's a chance that the episode is in his archive, but that was about a month ago and now it's all gone quiet, so I'm thinking that Lewie himself doesn't want to engage a 'fan' - but I'm hoping I'm wrong.

I just gotta find it this year!

It used to star Jeff Astle (of WBA fame) in a walk on role, almost certainly because Frank Skinner is a life long Baggie. As a fellow sufferer, I recall with fondness standing with 20,000 other fans and shouting "Skinneeeer, Skinneeeer" at him when he took his seat in the Halfords stand. I can definitely recommend his last stand up DVD: it is a little near the knuckle - as my grandma would have said.

Astle was a true good sport on FFL, helped the show massively to attain its cult appeal

I think I can officially say the Jona Lewie lead has died, I'm not going to pursue it anymore.

Keep on truckin', Stevie. It's waiting out there for you. Somewhere. :)

Haha, cheers!

Bit of an update on this - a fine YouTube member has uploaded all he has of episode 17 which amounts to about half the episode, better than nothing indeed!

If anyone here has the full version of this episode, please get in touch, you will be well rewarded.

Blimey! Frank Skinner has barely changed.
