There's always an undercurrent of insanity which goes on in private."); John Lydon stating his intention to land an acting part in Crossroads, rather laudably not for personal gain, but because "it will add a whole new dimension to the programme"; convincing the Angelic Upstarts to don lederhosen for a photo strip loosely based on The Sound Of Music.
