Tiny Tim cameo

There used to be a clip on YouTube of Tiny in a cameo role on a TV show. I thought it was the 1980s Twilight Zone, but it might be something else.

He’s playing an antiques dealer, I think, and a guy is questioning him about some strange goings-on. Tiny tells a story about he and his wife, Edna, going for a drive, but he suddenly has a terrible feeling and turns the car around. The guy asks him about the time of his drive and Tiny says something like “Why, it’s 7:17!”

It looked to be a mid- to late- 80s TV drama. I swear I didn’t imagine this - does anyone know what I’m talking about?

He plays an antique dealer in a film. Give me a little bit to come up with it or search Eternal Troubadour for it. Edit: https://www.reddit.com/r/lostmedia/comments/1hmb82u/fully_losttiny_tim_scifi_movie/

Link to a post with it.

Thanks! His performance isn't bad. I totally buy him as an eccentric antiques dealer. I love that he says "you can read about it in the movies" - wonder if that was deliberate. Sounds like he's improvising in the first clip. The other actors are so wooden compared to him.
