Memorable Props

[Barrychuckle]

I was watching The Love Mobile yesterday, and I think it was amazing what the props department had done to the caravan, probably when the series had a more generous budget.

I was wondering what peoples favorite/funniest prop was big or small? there is plenty to choose from, many contraptions made by Wesley or something from Aunties shop. My personal favorite is the singing gnome Howard hid in Cleggs house in Gnome And Away

The huge kite from GETTING BARRY HIGHER IN THE WORLD ! All the Seymour crazy inventions as a matter of fact !!

The big balloon lady in Beware the Elbow especially when they let her go and she deflates only to land on Edie's Car one of the many laugh out loud scenes . Sadly still flat as a pancake she lies still and solemn in the Summer Wine Exhibition next to Nora's House [or at least she did] !

The homemade pedal-powered submarine that Wesley made for Compo.

On our Facebook Summer Wine selling group someone is selling Howard's gorilla.

OF all the props Pearl , much like Howard, you'd be perplexed what to do with it not really something you can display in your living room but sure someone will want it.

 

[Pearl]

Be a laugh if you didn't tell the other half you'd bought until it was sitting there in the living room.

Did n't your namesake scream ??

Now that is something I’d like to have, and a page I’d like to join.

For me one of the props I’d like to have is compos matchbox or maybe foggys walking stick.

I often wonder about the mangle, I believe they were made of cast iron, which is pretty brittle stuff, so I am amazed it did not smash into several pieces when it went down the steps and later through the police car roof, so I am guessing it's a prop

 

[Electrical Entwistle]

The Pigeon Suit/Hang Glider that Wally made for Compo.

 

[Adrian Morris]

One of my favourites would have to be Marina's bicycle. Imagine if that bike could talk.

Yes, that would be wonderful!

The prop I would like most is the one that holds up Nora's washing line. I bet that could tell a few tales.

She auctioned her bike a few years ago, it had many of the cast signatures on it

did

Believe it or not the mangle was a foam prop, with heavy sound affects for when they were moving it.

Is this not in the summer wine exhibition in Compos house? I remember seeing it

 

[Graham]
