    Stanhope Arms - setting for How Not to Cry At Weddings

    Captain, maybe Hobbo was wearing Howard's super tall platform shoes? My DuckDuckGo search shows Russ is 4" taller than Frank. You are right, Frank does seem really tall as Cpt. Peacock.

    Seymour

    Great episode, Pearl. Sir Humphrey was beside himself with loss of his key and access to the building. Really like the lady who gave Hacker the idea. Wish she had been in more episodes.

    The Names Bond... James Bond.

    I have not seen much of the newer Dr. Who stuff. Think I stopped following so much after the 7th doctor - mostly due to lack of availability to view the shows. Bruce, I do like Michelle Gomez as an actress and comedian. Thought she was great in "Green Wing". Only saw snippets of her on...

    I noticed the other day that our Seymour is in the show "Charters and Caldicott" along with Uncle Mort from "I Didn't Know You Cared" on the YouTube "Classic British Telly" channel. Not watched it yet but plan to soon. side note: The channel also recently posted "Let There be Love" with Paul...

    Old Movies.

    Tails of the Unexpected as you mentioned is another great show. I see that Leonard Nimoy is in the first episode from them. For some reason I feel that there is a series similar, if not the same, that he did an intro or some narration for the show episodes. Found it, "In Search of..."...

    Old Movies.

    Not sure how well a few movies I can think of at the moment would rate with you both. I really liked them when I saw them as an early teen growing up - still like them today. "Death Race 2000" - with David Carradine and Sylvester Stallone. A cross country car race where the goal is to...

    Old Movies.

    I recognize the names of a few of those movies. Sounds like some of them could be on "Mystery Science Theater 3000" or "MST3K " as it is affectionately known as.

    Splendid faces

    Scary frowns. The Angry emote on your post seems to suite their faces well.

    Essential reading

    Wow, used to love pouring over Haynes and Chilton's Repair books. Lots of good reading info. Great for those who like to turn a wrench or DIY car stuff. I bet Wesley had a few in his shed.

    Going Though the Series.

    I would love to have a store nearby like what you describe, Pearl. Sounds like a great place to browse for videos. I'd feel like a kid in a candy store. :D

    Salute the rank not the man!

    Congrats! Are you getting Norah to sew them on for you? Hopefully not through a letterbox hole in the door.

    Did Howard retire to Benidorm?

    If you (or anyone else) go there again could you stop in and ask the owner? Or call or email? I tried to look them up online but keep getting Marina Resort Hotel. Unsure if that is the same. Going by the pictures it does not seem to have anything to do with the show besides the catch phrase.

    New Book

    The "Classic British Telly" YouTube channel recently posted a video on this "Cast Interviews 1973-1983" book. Plus a link for the book is in the description. @ 19 USD seems a nice price for an 86 page LotSW book. The video in original post is showing as not available so hope you do not mind...

    Best of luck with that.

    No Library

    A Ballad for Wind Instruments and Canoe. I am glad they changed the show title. Less main focus on the library and more on the trio, countryside and locals (people as well as pubs).
