Pretty bizarre thing just happened, I was moseying along surfing the internet whilst eating my din dins and listening to the French radio station 'Fréquence K' when the DJ said quite clearly in English 'et maintenant vous avez 5 Leaves Left avec Man in the shed'...it caused me to spit my mouthfull of lambchop (grilled) over my laptop screen.

I then googled and found unfortunately that it was not our bumbling crusader Bassman but some dude's album from 1969. Disappointed? Nah. I do know this one though, I will never hear that phrase again (5LL) without thinking of B-man. So, from that point of view you could say his napalm-advertising of V1 and V2 has worked to some degree.

You sound like Bassman talking about Neighbours or Rhianna or Xbox.
