I thought two of my favorite shows had come together! I am Sheldon Cooper watching Last of the Summer Wine and sometimes I'm a completely other entity watching Sheldon Cooper watching Last of the Summer Wine after taking a philosophy course... Clegg would understand.
Its fine. I shouldn't have mentioned Ronnie Barker so I really started the derailment and also I misspelled his name.
Yes there were some real heroes in the movie business back then. Also sports. Ted Williams serving in two wars for instance. He would have held all the records if he hadn't lost...
Just for the record he was a brilliant comic, comic actor and comic writer. And we can let this thread which was never about him but got totally derailed die and I'll start a new one about how great Peter Sallis as an actor which was the intended point of the thread.
I recently watched Roman Holiday with Eddie Albert and was reminded that he was a pretty fair movie actor which skill he brought to his sitcom Green Acres. Then I remembered all the old genre actors who filled Hooterville in the American sitcoms Green Acres and Petticoat Junction. Mayberry on...

My phone beeped and I thought cool someone actually wants to talk to me. It was just the weather alert. I said to my self, that is ok just turn on the TV and there will be people talking. Then I wondered for a moment what people did before TV when their phones beeped and there was no one...
Great video! I have never watched more than an episode or two of that show. Thanks for reminding me. I stupidly get it mixed up with Father Ted which I personally didn't like. I must get unmixed up and unlike Compo make my way to the vicarage and watch that series.
I think I got lucky and got a nice butter dish, Pearl. It is glazed stonewear and seems to have nice heft to it. I no nothing about such things and might just as easily picked up something plastic as in fact I did for my soap dish! I hope that doesn't effect the taste of the soap! ;)
Little things can make life better. I just got a butter dish and soft butter is way better than hard butter. Everyone should have a butter dish!
What little things do you suggest?
