Our Sam a trendsetter for all these young whippersnappers today with their headphones, who'd have thought it? :)

Unlike many of our high street banks Foggy's aim was to have branches everywhere! ;)

I grew to appreciate Blamire more over the years. His less cordial interactions with the ladies, Howard, Smiler, etc. could have been good as well.

Before his passing Alan Bell was kind enough to send me some of his own pictures, this one was taken with his Nikon D70 camera on the 6th September 2004

As it's his thread so to speak here are my thoughts on our Cyril. He was never always in charge in fact on occasion Clegg took the lead in this era and so you might think it was a more equal trio. However, this was was not the case as...

For me Seymour was pretty much the definitive third man. On the authoritive side he had all the bad traits built up of his time as head of the Utterthwaite academy. The glimpses we get here are of an instution as much falling apart...

Don't forget, series 3 was originally written for Blamire and the script was adjusted for Foggy. Foggy was not the type to want to volunteer to go for a morning swim, unlike Blamire who had the boys go out camping and rowing a canoe...

It'd have gone for a fair longer I suspect with a slightly rejigged back to originally intended series 3. Thereafter he'd have gradually mellowed a bit as the series opened up more and the northern grime got replaced with rolling hills...

It is indeed Norman Clegg that was once Howard/trapped in a lift with Marina!

Not the liquid refreshment our trio approve of! He'll be wanting a fancy coffee next! Some people...tsk...

It's only noticable when I set down :P

Hence the need to chews carefully where you shop! ;)

If you struggle over spending a penny you're invariably caught short! :P
