In this episode of Eyes & Teeth the big big talent of you can clearly hear my genuine reminiscent joy catching up with Rachel who stood side by side with me doing the YMCA at 10am on the roadside entrance to Barry Island resort one of the last realistic replica’s of Hi-De-Hi. I don’t think there is a park open today that possessed and provided that true link to the heyday of holiday parks back then. When they knocked it down they took away a gem and historic part of entertainment history and memories. But today Rachel and I share that excitement and moments that we will never forget.

The venue secured our love for the business and laid down the skills we needed to go out there and entertain in our own way and we have done just that and both still do to this day.

That was 30 years ago, we were both 17 years old, now at 47, Rachel & I catch up on zoom to talk Barry Island, Mike Doyle, The Golden Girls, Karen Carpenter, Forever in Blue Jeans, Jon Clegg, Status Quo, Southsea's Kings theatre, Jamie Steen, Tammy Wynette, Sir Ken Dodd and much more.
