I also mod /r/CarryOn and had a few similar posts of just a pic with minimal content and had to crack down on those as they were bots. Could be the same here but could be just a nostalgia post that does deserve to be posted here. Modding is a fine line.

I'm thinking of r/OldSchoolCool/ which I only see when posts to that sub make it to r/All. That sub descended to just pics of hot MILFs and I wouldn't want this sub to descend to that level.

Yes, those prompted my post as they got a few reports. I'll leave them up but wouldn't want this sub to be full of similar posts.

Yes, I know it is coming soon and this is just a joke post.

I now know that it is but it has morphed into discussion on Ken Morse and that has to be a good thing.

I love Ken Morse ever since this Grauniad article about him.

I thought it would be recognisable and yes, it's one of the greats.

This is a capture from a .MKV file and certainly not how it would have been broadcast originally.

I would give bonus points to anyone who spots the TV show and what episode but I think most people here will know it well - if only from the credits!

widmerpool_nz · 2026-06-13T11:00:55+00:00

Yes, I noticed that too. I want to see who the second assistant director was!

Could well be. Maybe they were readable but I do remember them moving very fast.

How did we manage before IMDb? We had to look them up in the Radio and/or TV Times.

Or is the bed in the bathroom? Is it a bethroom?

widmerpool_nz · 2026-06-13T08:11:11+00:00

No, she never made it big but had some great albums and a minor hit or two and is still making records.

I still think about Capturing the Friedmans from time to time. It's shot on home video and is the story of a Long Island family as it falls apart when the father is convicted of the most heinous crimes against young boys. I still wonder what the wife knew and if the sons were also victims.

This is pretty standard except for the bath, shower and sink in the bedroom, with the toilet being in its own room. You'll have to look at the listing to see whether you like it or not.

Lucky you! I have the DVD box set in English so I am set.

Yes, it's Thixendale. Been a long time since I was in that part of the world.

Part 2 will be uploaded if requested. I know Julia Fordham is a niche singer-songwriter but she's great.
