    Where were they?

    Terrible weather today in Yorkshire Dales apparently, feel sorry for all those affected.

    Very Sad news

    Very sorry to read this, can only echo what others have said and hope she will pull through.

    Lovely Holiday

    Thanks, Captain. The Scaley Gate dell was certainly well on the way to its current state back in 2015. Can't see the area ever returning to what it looked like in LOTSW but that is maybe a good thing for the insects and birds and all the little creatures living there (Clegg would approve!) I...

    If there were missing episodes of Last of the Summer Wine...

    It might work better published as a book of scripts, then one could imagine the original characters' voices.

    Herman Teasdale/Moreton Beamish

    She might have had a decent enough voice in reality and just put on an act for that show?

    Lovely Holiday

    You are absolutely right Captain, the local councils have not really given as much recognition to the show as they could have done, but the map is brilliant - I'd hardly have had a worthwhile holiday without it.

    Lovely Holiday

    I hope that was in a 4x4 Terry, would be quite a bumpy ride! That is interesting about the barrel rolling scene. So many episodes I want to re-watch now!

    Lovely Holiday

    Thank you all! Not sure if I should be re-sizing photos before posting them on here or if it's ok to post them just as they come? Anyway I will post another one for now, showing a horse in the field beside Gate Foot Lane, near New Mill, just up from the Toss o'Coin pub- this place really gave...

    Best Performance #14

    I vote for Elegy for Fallen Wellies and the rest of Compo's passing trilogy, too.

    Herman Teasdale/Moreton Beamish

    Babs was certainly a strange character who was not in the spirit of LOTSW (I felt a bit sorry for the actress who played her as she got such an awful role!) I think more could have been done with the character of Mrs Avery though, she had good moments like when she helped Glenda (and Barry) out...

    If there were missing episodes of Last of the Summer Wine...

    Absolutely agree with the above comments, it would just feel wrong with other actors in the roles.

    holmfirth station

    No, you are right Rick, the road is steep but the ground would have been made level on the other side for the railway. The old station building is now a private house but I read somewhere that a part of the old platform has been retained. You do catch a glimpse of it from the upper deck of a...

    Herman Teasdale/Moreton Beamish

    I like Herman/Moreton well enough, not a major character for laughs maybe, but he was part of the fabric of the show.

    R U OK?

    Sweltering but keeping cool with plenty of chilled drinks and lots of windows open plus the fan which is normally only used for exercise biking! Glad you are OK Peri.

    Lovely Holiday

    Not long back from holiday in Holmfirth (very active with much bussing and walking!) and I was so, so grateful for the Summer Wine Map and advice given to me on this site which enabled me to see so many interesting and beautiful sights. Would have posted before now but I feel much more...
