Trivia
One of his most famous characters was the Rev I.M. Jolly, a well meaning but dour minister. This character was not based on any one minister but rather a collection of ministers who are full of doom and gloom. The character first surfaced in 1978 on the programme 'Scotch & Wry', it became the most popular of the Last Call characters and it was such that Hogmanay TV in Scotland was not complete without the annual message of 'hope' from the Rev IM Jolly. The very last 'Last Call' was in 1999.
