the B-Side to Robin Askwith’s only real stab at the pop charts from 1977. The single charted at 39- despite the fact that his name is spelt wrong (‘Robin Aswith’) on the single itself- leading to the A Side ‘Confessions’ being performed by Askwith on Marc Bolam’s show Marc, as immortalised on Youtube here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAlvVUwfKbU

Askwith in Benidorm

According to this weeks TV Times, “The Ask” has a role in the third series of ITV’s Benidorm

“...Benidorm continues to attract big stars, with Tim Healy, Keith Barron, Sheridan Smith and Seventies icon Robin Askwith all making guest appearances in this series, and Una Stubbs playing hen-pecked Martin’s mum”

Ok, so its likely to be just a one episode role, but c’mon its a step up from appearing in Richard Driscoll films.
