A "Mini-Cab Driver" sketch by Peter Cook & Dudley Moore was added to the original 45 minute production somewhere in the eighties, along with a transfer of John Zacherle's classic "Dinner with Drac" from the original 45 rpm single--scratches intact. Zacherle also lends his announcing talents to the production credit tag.
