Galaxy Babe - eclectic editor

"Before he became a Christmas ornament, Sir Cliff Richard was the UK's leading rock 'n' roll icon. Like Elvis, he made a number of films, the most famous of which had him and The Shadows taking an RM over to Europe and singing catchy pop songs."

It was Cliff who took the RM abroad, the Shads weren't with him, though they did appear in the film dressed in Greek national dress.smiley - biggrin

On a point of detail it was an RT (the Routemaster's predecessor) which Cliff took on his "Summer Holiday".
