The Oddest JAM Edition?

Having just listened to a 1979 edition, featuring the Kenneths William
and Robinson, Freud and Miriam Margoles, I was struck by how strange
it was. Nick Parsons interrupted - twice! - while panelists were
speaking (with rather lame contributions which left the audience
cold), Kenneth R descended into embarrassing babytalk (when not
talking Russian), Miriam constantly made reference to a night of
passion with the chairman, dipping in and out of accents from Grenfell
to Windsor, while Freud appeared to be auditioning for a Samuel
Beckett play. Kenneth Williams alone provided the Voice of Sanity. And
even he had the odd hissy fit.

Can anyone else suggest an edition which bucked convention like this?

(BTW - cheers Don!)
