In the eighties there was a anarchic comedy show on
BBC 2 in the UK.. I am sure many of you watched the
Young Ones too...

Each week there was a slot for a band ,, one week I
am sure Stewart Copeland was in an all star band (ft
Jools Holland too I think) Is this right? I think the
band were called the Ken Baker 12 or the All Stars ...

Who else made up the band? Was Sting and Andy in it
too? Did they ever gig?

I've got it on tape. Sting and Andy were not in the band.

Jools was, and (I think) other Squeeze members were as well.

A humorous moment in the segment shows Stewart physically ripping the drummer from behind the drumset and tossing him aside as Stewart takes the reigns and shows him how it's done.

If you'd like to see this, DON'T buy the DVD set. When the complete Young Ones episodes were released in a DVD set, (at least here in the States) the musical break with Stewart was removed from that particular episode.
