Bette Midler, Louis Prima and Captain Scarlet

Mr O'Grady was chuffed to bits this week because the All Star Triples starred two of his favourites: Bette Midler and Louis Prima. His happiness extended to the Lost TV Theme too, a classic from 1967, Gerry Anderson's hit sci-fi show, Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons.
