Do you remember this?

The incident last week, when Mark Selby received a writ just before playing snooker, reminded me that something like this had happened before on live TV but I can't remember who it was. I'm sure it was a live Sunday night variety programme and it was a comedian, doing his act, when a guy walked on stage and gave him an envelope. Does anyone else remember this?

Ken Dodd springs to mind but can't be sure

There was a great act called Dailey and Wayne and they never even talked to each other off stage. One even delivered a writ on the other one in the middle of the act. He wanted the props or something and he needed witnesses to the writ, so he served it on stage.
