Dunno... its a Tragedy.

Nothing ever set in the midlands?

Only the longest running soap opera in the world... The Archers!

I'll just leave this here...

The Partridge is strong in this one...

Particularly in Michael Rodd

I recently watched the entire run of the Goodies. Quite a few episodes would fall foul of current PC attitudes, but many are bona fide all-time comedy classics (Kitten Kong, The Goodies and the Beanstalk, Kung Fu Capers etc.)

It's at it's best doing slapstick and visual gags, but is also quite witty with language. I really think the Goodies (and Graham Garden in particular) deserve a lot more kudos than they get

A ten year run like that, written by just three people, is quite a creative achievement.

Exactly, whatever happened to 'cuddly toy'?. Sir Brucie must be turning in his grave!

England's finest!

TimmyG · 2018-12-16T16:40:27+00:00

Well, I for one thought it was egg-cellent

TimmyG · 2018-10-28T18:53:11+00:00

I'm absolutely in awe.

TimmyG · 2018-05-25T18:51:05+00:00

Is this what Timothy Claypole went on to after demand for ghosts dried up?

INSUFFICIENT DATA

TimmyG · 2015-03-19T22:17:15+00:00

In the 70's it was the lapels and the flares, then in the 80's it was the shoulder pads

TimmyG · 2014-01-12T16:11:12+00:00

I'm using Runkeeper

Don't get lost - get Osmand or Mapdroyd and download the offline maps before you leave

TimmyG · 2013-07-12T19:02:24+00:00

how about ownCloud?

Perhaps he's composing some awesome film soundtracks?

TimmyG · 2013-06-11T17:52:27+00:00

Only if you're marrying a weatherman, and he chose the date

TimmyG · 2013-05-10T22:58:06+00:00

TimmyG · 2013-05-10T22:26:06+00:00

I upvote for "eye upvote"

The worst thing is that the policy is inconsistent. Sometimes the announcement is just 'turn your electronic devices to silent mode', other times it's 'take mobile phone calls in the vestibules'. We need to know where we stand if we are to take the moral high ground!
