I remember you saying he was a favourite of yours too, Roger.
Here's his Driving Instructor sketch...

I read a really good book a few years ago, it had a bit with a Sasquatch family and was supposedly based on a true story. "The Long Walk" by Slavomir Rawicz - you might enjoy it too. It also has a bit with a bear.

Apparently, Freemasons can do that too.
