In the "By The Magnificent Thighs Of Ernie Burniston" Cleggy approaches Marina on her bike to give her a birthday card, Marina steps of her bike holding the handlebar, she then lets go of the bike to hug and kiss Cleggy, how come the bike did not fall over.

I suspect a crew member was out of shot and took hold of it, it's funny how you notice these things after seeing the episode many times

On a slightly related subject - I haven't seen any bicycles on the show with kickstands. They're just leaned against a wall or hedge, or thrown down on the ground. Every bike I've ever had has had a kickstand, and any youngster that didn't use the kickstand got thoroughly chewed out.

Well spotted. I will be looking at the bikes closer now

I'd need to watch it again but I thought Compo was holding it.

Well Marina had most of the menfolk scared stiff so surely her bike followed suit. (but didn't turn left!) After all, Compo alludes to his own bicycle going where it likes on one occasion.
