    In the 80’s during my Naval bit, we had to overnight at RAF Odiham. There was a car, obviously owned by some airy fairy with a sticker in the side window. It said “You can sleep tight tonight, your RAF is protecting you”. Some Jack had very wittingly written “Sensational one night offer”.

    If you mean the infamous Gerald Wiley and other writers names he used ,no he didn’t the program was written by Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais.

    Dick n Ian, yes of course. Sorry.
    They were indeed masters, but one of those two admitted in some Top 50 comedians type show that they often received script ideas in the post, and were used. It was Barker in disguise they found out later.

    A quango whose remit sounds well intended but by its very nature it will upset people amongst whom it is adjudicating.

    If we had properly controlled immigration and a policy of integration not multiculturalism it wouldn’t be needed.

    Nigel Lawson has looked ill since he lost 5 stones a few years ago, but whenever I have seen him interviewed his intellect seemed unimpaired.

    His intellect wasn’t in doubt. Neither is his daughters, although I’d not care hahaha

    i suppose that’s where comedy relies on individual tastes,i personally cannot stand Fawlty towers ,now if you had said Porridge,written by geniuses,acted by a genius and probably supported be the best ensemble of cast members that you could imagine.

    Barker wrote it under a sue denim.
    And, you are the only person I have ever heard say they didn’t like Fawlty.

    To other posts, Lisa Riley wasn’t a fat tart, she was a mahoosively fat bad actress.
    Dara Obrieaien (Or whatever the garlic spelling is) is outstanding as a comic.
    And Ripping Yarns has been repeated, but maybe only once or twice.

    One of my favourites was the episode in which he was robbed and became friendly with the robber due to a love of Spades. “Spear and Jackson number 5 shovel, now that WAS a shovel!”

    Old Shape,

    managed 12 in a row on the 100pin last week – left one standing on the 13th end – oh *******

    Shirley you mean 11 then a 99? It’s 10 ends plus a max of 2 due to carry over. 12 strikes gets you 3,000.
    I’ve got same as thee now. 2999 points out of a max 3,000 LoL.
    The 100 pin is easier than the 10 pin. Much more forgiving.
    The Spin thing is good fun.
    And I can wup most ppl on the Table tennis.
    Island flyover, I can’t find the last few white balloons, got all the “I” things a while back. Oh, and I can’t follow that feckin Guido plane to get the badge! 3 minutes!!! I can’t stay in his smoke trail for more than a few seconds.

    Wii geek mode off!!!!!!
