    YOO TOOB doco

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

    I agree with Barry. As a "MAIN" character Tom failed dismally in my opinion. When he got teamed with Auntie and Smiler and took a lesser role he got more acceptable. Likewise I wasn't too fond of Mrs Avery and Babs. :08:

    Ghost voice, teasing Compo in the Café

    Sorry, I disagree :14:. Like you, I had not noticed it before , but I think the voice is a female one and definitely NOT Ivy. Compare it to when Compo speaks after Foggy's "nostril" comment. His voice is much deeper and gravelier. I don't think it is him "putting on" a silly voice either. I...

    Merry Christmas 2021

    OK, lets settle this "ASHES" thing. While I LIVE in OZ, I am definitely NOT Aussie. I am a true blue skinned Scot by nature. I HATE cricket (My wife who is unfortunately a "cockney" from London) loves the damn thing and is continually contaminating my TV set with the thing every season...

    DREAMER...Nothing but a dreamer!

    Woke up this morning from a marvelous dream! FOR REAL!! I was in Summerwineland, well actually I was in the areas where it was filmed and I was watching them film a new feature length SW film, with a proper budget! I was aware I was in "reality" watching them, not actually a part of the show...

    COVID Vaccine.

    Had my 2nd Astra shot today. Too early to know if I will have side effects but if the first one is anything to go by, just expecting a sore arm for a couple of days. That is of course ignoring my Banana problem and the Bill Gates is GOD syndrome! (A La shoutbox) :fp:

    Sci-Fi

    Thanks for the heads up on "Missions" WellyMan. I hadn't heard of it before so I thought I would give it a go. About halfway through S1 now and despite having to read the subtitles as it is all in French (Acceptable because it was MADE IN FRANCE! :fp::))It is certainly worth viewing when...

    Sci-Fi

    Barry, I have heard that there are some sad people in the world like you who don't "get" Sci Fi, but I don't really believe it. Next you will be saying that there are people who don't like LOTSW.:13::13::13: (NOTE: not being insulting Barry...tongue FIRMLY planted in cheek!!)

    Sci-Fi

    Rick, I was a bit of an Expanse fan but I sort of grew out of it.:confused: I read the first few books of the series BEFORE watching the TV shows. Unfortunately this caused a few problems in that the "feel" of the original book was not translated onto the TV for me. I had also by that time...

    Sci-Fi

    GUILTY as charged! Read, and/or have, a lot of the "classics" (Dune series and Asimov, Harry Harrison, Niven, Pournelle and E.E. Smith et al.) Read all the Hitchhiker trilogy (All 5 parts) Currently quite taken with Jay Posey, Jay Allan and Jack Campbell and a few other more modern writers. I...

    If/When should the series have ended?

    I am an oddity, in that I quite liked the later series. YES there were some bad ones but overall I liked them. Funnily enough, some of the episodes that most people seem to put in their favourites bin (like Full Steam Behind) I am quite "BLAH" about. Not that I hate them, they just are not among...

    Am I looking forward to Tuesday or not

    Looks like the same type as mine Terry. Still need glasses for close up but "normal" vision is now 6/6. After the op, the eye surgeon said "read the bottom line on chart" with your right eye (which up to then had been my worst) and I read it perfectly. He then said "now read the chart with your...

    Am I looking forward to Tuesday or not

    Best wishes Terry. I had my right eye done last October, just waiting to get my left one done. (I assume you are getting a new inter-ocular lens?) The difference in vision is AMAZING!!!! Still having trouble trying to get the Zoom function to work!:08:

    OZ vaccine

    The rationale for the snap 3 day lockdown IS to allow for contact tracing and also to try and prevent further spread. Depending on the outcome of the tracing and testing results we may or may not have that period extended. There is obviously a lot going on behind the scenes which we know about...

    OZ vaccine

    I should note that the Hotel in question is NOT a dump! It is actually a high end one, just unsuitable for quarantine purposes due to the ventilation system. I am not denigrating the hotel as such!
