I used to love Passport to the Sun and remember the mad dash Leapy and his wife had to the hospital when she went into labour with the twins Unbelievable to think it was on tv 10 years ago!!

He used to take over the kitchen of a restaurant one night a week to cook his renowned curry... don't know where it was but he used to live in Santa Ponsa so probably around that area.

He's a real character and always had me in stitches when I watched the programme so will look forward to seeing him in Hardleys....not sure about Little Arrows 'though

PP and Pollensa used to feature on the programme a lot with 'guest appearances' by Bob, Danny and Niki McCallum

I think it's repeated every so often on Sky and if you've never seen its well worth a look.

Hi favies! I think it was a boy and a girl (same as mine) and absolutely gorgeous....same as mine!!!

The thing i remember most was Leapy's hair raising drive to the hospital and his wife practically delivering them when she walked through the doors

Hi Debs!

Ah! Bless ..gorgeous twins. Thought it was one of each.

Wish "Passport To the Sun" would come back....loved when we seen PP in it. Be good to catch up with what Leapy is getting up to and of course to see the twins.

Anyway, catch him in PP sometime.

Leapy also writes a serious column in the Euroweekly news, this makes you think, Euro Weekly News | Grassing offspring to authorities is passing the buck | Leapy Lee | Columns | The Largest English Language Newspapers in Spain.
