In Bed with Medinner (1992)
Mills wanders around his flat, telling ludicrous fictional anecdotes about his showbusiness friends and reminiscing about his time as a television producer. These stories are illustrated by genuine clips from the ITV archives, which, interspersed with Mills' own heavily-contrived commentaries and bizarre non-sequiturs, come together to reveal surreal fictional backstories.

Bob Mills continues his quest to seek out the weirdest and wackiest folk on the globe. This week, Bob shows us how difficult it is to launch an acting career when you live in Sheffield. He follows one young hopeful who - armed with a few appearances in Look North - tries to get a sponsored car and clothes. Despite the attentions of an image consultant, he still holds out hope of getting a part as a menacing cop. Bob also finds out how explorer John Blashford-Snell responds to the arrival of a new kid on the block.
Jesco, the best tap dancer in the Appalachian Mountains. He also has a brother called Dorothy, who sniffs petrol, and thinks he's Elvis. In addition, a flashback returns to the early '80s where we meet Johnny Rubbish, Britain's first punk comedian, who teaches Bob a thing or two about punchlines.
