Joking Aside
In February 1994 comedian Noel V. Ginnity was held hostage for a cash ransom by armed robbers. It was a traumatic incident for him, but as a man who benefits from publicity, it also proved to be something of a boon to his career.
Noel tells his own story, giving us a picture of how the hostage incident fitted into his extraordinary life.
This is the last programme in the series.
