In 1980, Peter Cook starred alongside a host of celebrities in the LWT special 'Peter Cook & Co.'. The show included many sketches including a Tales of the Unexpected spoof titled 'Tales Of The Much As We Expected', which involved Cook as Roald Dahl explaining why he dropped the 'n' in Ronald, the sketch ends with the fireplace spreading over the room.
