OK...
John Travolta was in Grease with Jeff Connoway (as well as Livvie)... who was in The Eagle Has Landed with Michael Caine... who was in Water with Billy Connelly... who was in The Secret Policeman's Other Ball with Timbo.
How about Alan Alda? Looney scientist in Wacky Wales. |

(Avoiding the Cook and Cleese routes here...)
LONG VERSION: Sandra Bullock was in "Miss Congeniality" with Michael Caine. He did "The Italian Job" with Benny Hill. Benny was in "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" as was Lionel Jeffries. Lionel appeared in "12 + 1" with TBT.
SHORT, ALMOST TOO EASY VERSION: Sandra Bullock presented an award at the "76th Annual Academy Awards" as did Sting. Sting sang at "The Secret Policeman's Other Ball."
Screw it, go with the short version!
NEXT: John Travolta (again, almost too easy!) I myself brought him in last week - drunk and disorderly. But when I sobered up, he'd gone. Sorry. (P.C. BENT) |

In a desperate attempt to avoid the obvious Cleese reference...
Alfred Burke was in "Minder" which guested Patrick Troughton who appeared in "The Goodies" with TBT
How about Sandra Bullock?

Cybill has been a guest on so Graham Norton, who hosted Bring me The Head of Light Entertainment on which both Tim and Graham have been Guests.
How about Alfred Burke next. I always wondered about Jesse's collection of little shoes. |

While we're linking musicians, try Ozzy Osbourne. *gurgles and slurs* I myself brought him in last week - drunk and disorderly. But when I sobered up, he'd gone. Sorry. (P.C. BENT) |
