Bob Monkhouse WASN'T, as you say, a "kleptomaniac", but a genuine, legitimate collector of film and tv. I recommend you read a copy of his autobiography "Crying With Laughter". At one time,Mr. Monkhouse had one of the largest film collections in the world. FACT!

I also saw the documentary on him. He was always one of my fave tv personalities, and is sadly missed.

One thing that maybe of interest, is that, did you know, he provided voices in the 1966 film "THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO." He provided the voice of Zero X navigator Brad Newman and also the voice of the compere in the Swinging Star nightclub (Alan Tracy's dream sequence.)
