Sixty Minutes catches up with Ray Burns, AKA Captain Sensible, one of the driving forces behind legendary punk band The Damned. He has recently scored an unlikely UK number 1 hit with a solo cover of Roger and Hammerstein's Happy Talk, and is about to release his new self-penned single I Am A Spider.

Captain Sensible lives in Croydon with his parents, his girlfriend and his pet rabbit, Rabbit. Rabbit's floppy ears are the first to hear the latest Captain Sensible compositions - the punk multi-instrumentalist tests out song ideas by performing them to the discerning lagomorph in the garden.

How do The Damned feel about his solo career?


Originally broadcast 24 October, 1983.
