Ironically, it's "The Memory Man" with Colin Blakely in the title role.

Ha ha-I jest! I'm not sure whether 'The Memory Man' was one of Dahls stories but it's one of the better episodes,Colin Blakely was in a few TOTU episodes IIRC?

I do hope the IPO mob weren't waiting outside to deprive him of his medal.
Well done Bernard.
