Raquel Welch was one of the seven deadly sins (specifically, Lust). Peter Cooke and Dudley Moore were three quarters of "Beyond the Fringe" which was a comedy revue in the early 60s. It played in New York (on Broadway?). Jonathon Miller was also in the group and someone else, whose name escapes me. Cooke and Moore continued to work together into the mid-70s, doing "concerts" and making records. There was another revuew, with just the two of them, about 1973. The English album "Behind the Fridge" was, I think, from that revue, which played in New York and Chicago, among other places. They were wonderful. They're still wonderful separately, but they were very special together, which they haven't done much since _Ten_.
