Great topic, Chuffer! Really got me thinking. Too much, infact. I suddenly realised how many lines there were that make me laugh over and over again. Like you, I enjoy the 'there's a tramp at the door' line (and Compo's subsequent reply) from Whoops. I also enjoy many of the Nora and Wally...

Clegg in Northern Flying Circus. Then there's Foggy, who collects quite a few in All Mod Conned. Lol

I'm sure there is a stash of it somewhere, maltrab. Probably at several sites, in fact. Certainly with regards publicity photos that were original in the files, many can be found at places as simple as boot markets or antiques fairs. I have several Doctor Who ones as well. I like this one in...

Don't think I have posted this before, but, If I have, then forgive me as my memory gets worse every day. It's a publicity photo of Joe Gladwin as Wally from the episode 'Set the People Free'. I bought it on eBay a while back and only just found it again this morning. Interesting thing is is...

My favourite moment with Mr Wainwright is when Compo prods him up the bum with a ladder in 'Mending Stuart's Leg'. Lol

Very well said, wstol. I couldn't agree with you more. :03:

Oh dear. :fp: I have noticed that Talking Pictures normally put a disclaimer before most of their output, as well. I was expecting ITV3 to do the same with their broadcasts of the Carry On films, but I never saw any. Although I'm sure they cut the scene at the start from '...Girls' of the dog...

Now there's a thought! :rolleyes: Maybe we could storm the despatch box together, Keith. :37: I wonder what our first policy would be if we ever got into power? Compulsory Last of the Summer Wine watching for all UK schoolchildren probably? Lol I'd certainly get rid of all the woke lessons they...

Sign of the times, Keith. Frankly this whole country/world is passing me by now. I'm just glad we still have the DVDs, in some semblance of intactness, to watch. I have a nasty feeling that in the future they will start getting their grubby little paws on them as well. Mind you, if they did that...

Absolutely, Keith. I just sometimes think we read too much into aspects of this and other shows. I believe it's a kind of faux morality. They, as you rightly say, were just actors and actresses playing a part , none of which has led to an epidemic of lecherous activity. To be honest, I'm not...

Not sure what the problem with Mr Wainwright's character is, to be honest. (Well, apart from the obvious, that is). I was under the impression that the two lady librarians (Mrs Partridge and Miss Moody) were quite welcoming towards his advances. Mrs Partridge was clearly having an affair with...

Well don't rely on me for the answer. I had (yet another) senior moment yesterday, forgot what this thread was about, and proceeded to watch the first half of E.T before I remembered I was supposed to be watching "Close Encounters...' Lol Doh! :fp:

Cheers, RickAns! I would certainly buy you one back. :18: Yes I think your scenario is certainly more likely than mine. I can't really imagine Compo straying too far from the delights of the Holmfirth tap and Nora Batty either. Lol Actually, you got me thinking with the 'Nora hat thing' just...

Lol Barry. XXX Would Sid have been brave enough to have a whip round though, that's the question? :)

I was watching Uncle of the Bride the other day and, during the stag night scene in the pub, Compo starts to talk about how he was advised to sue the Polish gentleman that ran off with his wife. He didn't, of course, due to the fact he could not spell his name; however, I was left wondering what...

Am I the only one desperately trying to find access to a copy of CEotTK -- or hoping it comes on the telly -- at this moment in time? Lol

Intriguing. Not watched that in a while so will have to take a look. :)

I'm glad it wasn't just me thinking that. Lol

Rhinophyma, perhaps, captain clutterbuck? Apparently alcohol can make it worse.

Lol Now that's obscure! :)
