Steve Coogan briefly noted his double act with Mike Hayley in his 2015 autobiography "Easily Distracted", including the recollection that:
"In the summer of 1989, I went back to Edinburgh and did a double act at the Playhouse with Mike Hayley, who had also been on First Exposure. It was called Coogan and Hayley's Seaside Special, and our publicity said that we wanted to create 'a show that proves you can be radical - but still wear a sweater'. We had investment in the show and there were adverts on the back of buses in Edinburgh."
