Certainly unforgettable, an extremely clever and talented man, but he

Somebody must have dropped a great heavy lump of coal on my head. Not a
Goon after all, even though he appeared *on* the show, didn't he? I was
under the impression that he was the Goons' pianist.

Are you sure it wasn't a batter pudding that hit you?

Dud was born in 1935, which makes him a bit young. AFAIK he never
appeared in a Goon Show. The musicians were a BBC outfit led by Wally
Stott, the Ray Ellington Quartet, and Max Geldray.
