Maybe each of their bonds to Holmfirth was greater than their bond to each other but that was enough.

Speaking of LotSW cast, while browsing IA I also found Clarence, a 6 episode series with Josephine Tewson, starring Ronnie Barker. The playlist at that link starts with those episodes and has several other series including the anthology series Seven of One that spawned Open All Hours and Porridge.

Ran across this while perusing Internet Archive, it was created by Roy Clarke who penned the pilot, most of the series was written by Alan Plater, stars Bill Maynard. Oh No It's Selwin Froggitt (all 4 seasons 1974-78).

Kathy Staff as Mrs Blewett usually looks like she could have just walked over from the LotSW set to be on OAH, it's impossible to not think Nora is in Arkright's:)

I just got a 15 month special on Usenet if anyone want me to look for any hard to find shows.

Something fun that was colorized is Reefer Madness, each character gets their own color smoke:41:

I've seen the OFaH 7 series through a few times but avoided Gold's airing of the specials because I never timed catching the 1st one so I have those to enjoy at the right time:)

That brings to mind colorization. I'm generally a purist in wanting to see shows unaltered, especially aspect ratios/cropping (give me black bars over any loss of pic or distortion!) but I'm a mixed bag on colorization, I think it works for shows that started in B&W for cost but switched to...

On the Buses spinoff staring our Smiler, Stephen Lewis. I uploaded the copies I have to Dailymotion and made a playlist, the ones on YouTube are horrible quality. https://dailymotion.com/playlist/xan29e Dailymotion compressed them a little, but not too bad. If anyone wants the files I have (or...

Easy question, after discovering this marvelous cast of characters in their beautiful paradise why would I NOT watch Last of the Summer Wine?:)
