    Summerwine shop up for lease

    I am sure he needed to have a backup or two somewhere. Given how adept Pearl was at disabling his bicycle. I can picture her like one of the Resistance Ladies of 'Allo, Allo' stealing distributor rotor arms from enemy vehicles.

    Anyone fancy going to a candlelit supper...?

    Sounds like loads of fun AND on a steam train. Foggy would be so jealous! Please let us know how it goes. Curious if there are multiple carloads do they do the skits in one car then move to the next and repeat. What happened to Daisy? Glad to see the show and theme, plus being on a steam...

    Wonderful Project of remembrance

    What an amazing capture of the fly by. Was not sure it it was a real picture or not at first.

    An Observation and wondering why

    I had noticed that line too but not thought much about it. Now will keep an eye out for what is on the other end when they show the full street. Other ideas: -If not for some utility line then possibly one used for street decorations, festivals? -Hanging a banner for when Arkwright actually...

    A few random thoughts

    Agree with you that the Compo trilogy episodes can really pull on the heart strings. Goes to show how good the other actors and writing really are to be able to handle Bill's passing as a much loved actor and character.

    My 1/6 scale figures

    Glad you did, they look much better. I am curious how you went about finding someone to do that. It seems to be a highly specialized / bespoke / niche / artisan ... type of service. We used to have thick phone books called the 'Yellow Pages' full of local businesses back in the day. No...

    Red Dwarf

    Oh my goodness, Amos! Marianna! Onslow? If you like sci-fi related comedy shows then you should check it out. It is a good, silly and funny show. May look a little dated nowadays but the comedy and writing are solid. Tempted to say it is like 'Father Ted' out in space but that is not...

    A few random thoughts

    You made it this far Denton, might as well finish out the series :). I agree with you that Russ comes on stronger than he should have. At least you can watch it for the other characters.

    Red Dwarf

    If they would have said something about the cancellation a few years ago when there was hype about producing a new RD special. They might have had more support in fan crowd source funding. Naylor should have the rights to the show and his word product to do a Go-Fund-It drive. Now the fans...

    Red Dwarf

    Sad news, captain. A bit of a strange article that is dated yesterday Sep 8th 2025. They say that the Red Dwarf special was commissioned back in Jan 2023. Then go on to say that UKTV axed it a few months later. So... around mid 2023 I'm guessing. They are just now telling us two...

    Too Many Antiques shows on TV

    Been a big fan of the "Lovejoy" series for quite some time. An irresistible rogue with a keen eye for antiques and amateur part-time mystery solver. Taken from the novels of Jonathon Gash - have the paperbacks and DVD's :cool: . Felt Ian McShane, Dudley Sutton, Phyllis Logan, Maggie...

    I Didn't Know You Cared - John Comer / Liz Smith

    A Peter Tinniswood classic and great series with John Comer, Liz Smith, Robin Bailey, Stephen Rea among others. As well as a guest appearance in an episode by "Mouse" from LotSW. This time he is not trying to get a free drink from the trio. "Forgotten British Television" on youtube is...
