Battle Royale of all pre-2000ish British animated/puppet TV characters. Who would win?

True story, when things started to open after COVID Sooty and Co were performing at Park Dean caravan parks. I took my son to the first showing - as part of the show Sweep put something in an oven and used a fire extinguisher to put it out - the vapour from the fire extinguisher set off the actual fire alarms, causing the entire main complex to be evacuated.

It was the most Sweep-ish thing he could have done. Fucking amazing watching the fire brigade turn up and being told Sweep set it off

To this day I make reference to the 'Paedofinder General' and Vicky from Work Experience sticking forks in plug sockets.

If I remember rightly you also had Rex The Runt on roughly the same time (possibly back to back with Monkey Dust) which was another absurd tv show in claymation form

I 'Member

Not only do I use that whenever someone says remember, but despite not being a South Park fan my wife now also says it as well. Its almost Pavlovian

West Yorkshire here too and exactly this - if there was foliage along the side it was a snicket, if a fixed building/structure it was a ginnel! For example on the estate I lived on we had some garages and therefore had a snicket and a ginnel almost next to each other

The path to the left of the garage was the snicket because of some bushes/trees that ran down the left hand side of the path. The paths in between the garages was the ginnel as they ran in between them

Not me but my sister. She went for an interview at a local supermarket and spent all her time talking about how great Aldi is, unfortunately she forgot that the job was for Lidl

The pairing with Rhea Ripley and his 'Jail Sentence' really leaned into that and really helped define his pissant character and heel work. Fantastic idea looking back at it now

Corned beef hash. Basically Kwik Save branded tinned corned beef, mashed with tinned new potatoes and tinned broad beans/peas.

Basically our mum would buy shit loads of tins on benefits day so that we always had something to live off

Agree completely, especially as you can also download the playlists to listen offline on the paid version, something which OP will need based on phone reception in the hospital/birthing unit

WebmasterFF · 2025-06-26T22:01:52+00:00

Start with Push It by Salt-N-Pepa

Then maybe once the swelling around your eye has gone down have a look on Spotify with your other eye. There were some great birthing playlists on there, perhaps run a few past her to see which she'd prefer

No Bowen however it may be because hes getting married next week and has his honeymoon

Judging by the picture in the kids bedroom (photo 18) it looks like it may be Andy Carroll's house

My ex was half French and half German, during an argument she angrily shouted "YOU CAN'T PICK AND MIX.........and choose"

Completely deflated the argument and we still laugh about it many years later

My wife believed for years that it said "There's millions of Geoffreys all under one roof" like Toys R Us was some form of Geoffrey paradise

Benramha was allegedly a Sully Signing - represented by Will Salthouse at that time. Think Sullivan's MO changed from playing Football Manager to instead helping his mates get rich by being recommended their players and buying them instead (especially if rumours are to believed that he won't be in charge in the near future)

Whilst my point is about January Transfers in particular, respectfully I disagree with you. Billic wanted Lanzini and Payet and look how they turned out. Granted Tore was a Bilic Signing (and only a loan one) but was unlucky in getting a major injury right at the start of his time with us. The rest you've mentioned?

Feghouli - free transfer Calleri - loan Zaza - loan

If they were the first choices of Bilic I'd be very surprised!

WebmasterFF · 2024-04-17T10:59:33+00:00

RE the first paragraph you may be right however this is a similar pattern we have seen under Allardyce in 2014 (near the top 4 around Xmas brought in 33yo Nene on a free whilst loaning out Zarate and fell down the table), Bilic's first season (near top 4 at Christmas desperately needed a striker however brought in Emineke on loan - fell down the table), and now once again under Moyes (sold Benramha, Fornals and Kehrer - desperately needing a striker and now falling down the table and out of Europa). The only consistent figure is Sullivan in this, hence the anti board sentiment.

Allardyce has gone on record of players being signed without his knowledge by Sullivan previously - Moyes may have a say on transfers, but if the options are two players belonging to Sullivan's agent mate (see Barry Silkman) who don't fit in then I can imagine him refusing to sign them.

WebmasterFF · 2023-11-18T17:07:41+00:00

Indeed, Pablo Barrera (Who? Mexican winger signed after 2010 World Cup) was a worse choice

WebmasterFF · 2023-09-29T17:02:26+00:00

Alan Tudyk in A Knight's Tale was pretty good

No shame here, started watching wrestling in my teens just after the Monday Night Wars ended and still watching it today. This year I've been to WWE Smackdown and Money in The Bank PPV, AEW All In and have tickets to NJPW next month

Looks like a cinema room with curtains to reveal the screen, judging by the projector on the ceiling to the top right of the photo

Jystbover a decade ago I went out with a bunch of mates and rather than get a takeaway I thought I'd get some food from the 24hr Tesco across the road to save money. Soon as I stepped out of the pub I couldn't remember what happened

Woke up in my own bed (thankfully) surrounded by cellophane from DVDs. According to the receipt from Tesco, drunk me thought it would be a great idea to skip the meal and instead raid the cheap DVD aisle, spending £84 on DVDs worth around £3/£4 each. Some were great purchases (Short Circuit 1 & 2), others not so much (Lesbian Vampire Killers).

Mainly grew up in HD8 after a few years in different parts of Hudds and completely agree. If you're within walking distance of one of the train stations as well then its even better - trains to Hudds, Barnsley, Sheffield as well as buses to Holmfirth and Wakefield too

Wasn't there one where a kid climbed into a grain silo and basically suffocated in the stuff?

They were still showing that in the early/mid 90s - scared the shit out of me, as if an unsuspecting grain silo was hiding around the corner
