The person behind Compo is the double of Dom from the repair shop

Poundland to change its name to Dollarworld maybe? ;)

A poignant post Tony , evidence of the younger musicians embracing his music can be seen a couple of pages back on 3rd of June when I posted Cynthia Erivo's version of this very song on Jools Holland's show.

A really sad day one of the pioneers of the sixties has sadly passed . I think most people of a certain age still love the music and air it daily I know I do and of course he wrote what is considered the greatest album ever Pet sounds which surprisingly the rest of the band didn't like when they...

Out in Newcastle yesterday and you know how you would just like to sit with a good cup of coffee in relative peace and quiet, has anyone else noticed it is almost impossible and you have to sit there and listen to this absolute drivel from these 20 plus wanabees, who drone on endlessly about...

The original series ? Yes it is good well worth watching

Headlines in Today's Sun " Lady fan of LOTSW turns down offer of three course meal at her favourite restaurant , a prize for a quiz win . A spokesman for the site hosting the quiz, Terence, stated that the offer was genuine and was made to celebrate the lady's success on a number of occasions ...

Yorkshire Humour Steve Cram, Daley Thompson and Tessa Sanderson go round to Seb Coe's house for tea . Steve took the Fish , Tessa to the chips and Daley the mushy peas . They sit down and are about to start eating when there's a loud knock at the door so Daley goes and answers . The rest shout...

It was poor, reminded me of the Magpie Murders, which I enjoyed thoroughly, and it's sequel also, but that's where the similarities ended. Whilst it looked promising, like you Terry I thought it was really poor, the comedic elements were weak as was the plot and the female lead was really...

Repeated today so loyal , silent and deadly would be Et Mortiferum fidus tacet in Latin I studied Latin at school for a year never thought it would come in handy ................. it didn't can't remember a thing thank you Google Translate. :fp:

Stopped using my landline years ago and yes I remember the phonecards well not only in the UK but remember buying equivalents abroad to ring home :)

Been catching up with Jools latest series in episode 1 Cynthia Erivo from Wicked sang this just exquisite.

Again memory blank for the episode name but when, to promote Auntie's costume department, he is dressed as Dracula and he jumps out to surprise Pearl and gets a handbag clobbering for his troubles just so funny.

Thank you Leigh for a comprehensive answer, fascinating, it seems to be a minefield with so many factors influencing what can or cannot be shown. David Jason is considered a National Treasure but things floating around Social Media and the press whether they are true or not seem to be tarnishing...

Leigh, What I alluded to re David Jason "preventing" repeats do you know if that is quite a common thing how does one actor have that power? I am aware of James Bolam constantly denying repeats of the Likely Lads which led to Rodney Bewes losing lifeline royalties for a number of years and in...

You aren't supposed to keep falling in the Mersey just unload the Cargo :08::)

One of the greatest shows ever making light of an awful conflict, light and dark so many comedic moments many more of pathos and Loretta "Hotlips" Switt was there as one of the legendary cast , a very very sad day.

Remembering our very own Peri an extra on Destiny and 6 Bananas miss his humour very much a definite day brightener.

Went to see Greg Davies last night and he was talking about his own experiences of this why at 50 plus does he now need to go to the toilet three times overnight and when he gets a woken for a fourth visit gets really angry and refuses to go , thankfully he has a glass on the bedside cabinet but...

I found it a very entertaining and funny show well worth watching but I have read that David Jason doesn't view it fondly and wont sanction TV repeats which is a great shame however, UK Gold did somehow show episodes a number of years ago but don't recall seeing it scheduled recently so perhaps...
