Why are two of these men laughing while one looks down in the mouth? Obviously it's because they've roped him into recording a Des O'Connor album!

"As it happens, Des is one of the best singers I've ever put a mic in front of. In my opinion, if his jokes were as good as his singing, he'd probably make quite a name for himself. And Alan's arrangements were amazing. I think the album's out in November. If you like '40's/'50's style music you should check it out. It's a good'un."
