    Anyone read any good books lately?

    If you like horror novels then I can recommend anything by Adam Nevill, and especially The Ritual.

    Will there be a video including Eli? Can't remember if he's been mentioned in the videos yet.

    Weird timestamps on forum notifications

    When I click on the notification icon the timestamps are sometimes in the future and say tomorrow or later today! Has anyone else seen these alerts from the future?!

    Beano and Dandy

    The Beano, and I occasionally read Dandy. Apparently the Beano has changed over the years to be less offensive (Fatty and Spotty have been renamed, for instance), but I'm not sure kids need coddling like that. Unless kids have become a different species to when I grew up in the 70s, then...

    What's your favourite episode?

    Roy Clarke did a brilliant job with those episodes, with the right balance of comedy and pathos. My favourite line is where Clegg says "Maybe that's what paradise is, somewhere that the sun doesn't come up till you're ready"

    Summer Wine Decanted

    Her and Mrs Avery seemed to be the most ill-judged characters for SW, but thankfully they didn't last long.

    Who is that woman in Last Post and Pigeon?

    There's also an unexplained woman, maybe the same one, in the Feathers pub scenes in the episode From Here to Paternity.

    Who is that woman in Last Post and Pigeon?

    At the end of the episode Ros goes back to Edie's house and besides her family there's another woman who comes out to greet her. Does anyone know who she is meant to be?

    I've noticed that too, but especially with Americans.

    The changing face of.........SOCIETY.

    Yes, the phone zombies are taking over! It's as though people have ADHD and need to be constantly stimulated and can't just be quiet with their thoughts or have a conversation with someone. There will probably be a generation of people with neck problems as they get older from looking down at...

    Summer Wine Decanted

    At 1:31 it looks like Marina's hair has been pointed up over her red hat to make it look like a reference to the devil as it looks a little like horns. Is that just me reading too much into it, or do you think it was deliberate?

    Summer Wine Decanted

    Looking forward to watching this one and seeing your take on the Pearl, Howard and Marina triangle. I always thought their situation has elements of farce. It'd be interesting to know if Roy Clarke was influenced by farce when creating those characters.

    Summer Wine Decanted

    I've just watched ep 1 of Summer Wine Decanted and enjoyed it, but unfortunately at times the narration is drowned out by surrounding noise.

    Davenport

    Maybe it was partly his voice and wearing a hat that obscured his full appearance that reminded me of Del's dad.
