    How about characters we dislike...or just cannot "connect" with ???????

    For me, the worst character was Morton, followed closely by Toby. Both of them totally uninspiring and pointless. I wasn't too keen on the Tom clan either. But I tend to steer clear of certain episodes, rather than specific characters. episodes like "A quiet drink". That was one of the very worst.

    Using SW quotes in real life conversation

    I like to use - "Pretty Baaaaysick", "oh aye" in a mock Yorkshire accent.

    Laughter track

    I agree - It always seemed strangely ...... "flat" with no laughter.

    Full Blown meals

    I love the one where Compo sits next to a bloke eating a breakfast, shows him that infernal matchbox and gets a free meal.

    When did Clegg become more fainthearted

    Not sure exactly when he lost his "Attitude", but in the scene where he leaps around in the cafe and sings in Russian, frightening an old lady who's just coming into the cafe, he seemed a bit extreme even for the old Clegg. He seemed to start to go downhill after that episode. Maybe he even...

    Little Britain

    Apparently, they've had second thoughts and the episode has been reinstated after a protest by John Cleese. But it will carry a warning. But what else have they got in their sights ? - "It ain't half hot mum" and "'Allo 'Allo" might be next.

    One of the greatest Rock n Rollers

    As is common with bands, we went through several permutations of band members - I played, and still play, tenor and alto sax, flute, clarinet. We were called "The Gremlins" for a good deal of the time, also "The Tornadoes" (before the hit band with the same name) and other names. we played in...

    One of the greatest Rock n Rollers

    Way back, I played in a band and I seem to recall we played a few Little Richard numbers. Mostly though, we played James Brown stuff..... all his big hits. I preferred James Brown as we had a line-up that included a couple of saxes …. trumpet.

    An enquiry about Biff Hemingway.
