    Scarborough Fair - Yorkshire Coast Documentary (1973)

    Saw this on the interwebs and wondered if anyone on here was in Scarborough 1972 / 1973 time frame. Maybe you are in the video! Skimmed through it but not watched the whole thing yet.

    New Weather Station

    Very nice, sure beats a bit of seaweed. Didn't Glenda or Barry mention something about using a bit of seaweed in the show?

    The Snowdropper (1977) with Peter Sallis

    That must have been very frustrating for your mom, Adanor. Were you near a coal town or something? Hopefully not Wally's pigeons!

    The Snowdropper (1977) with Peter Sallis

    As pretty as it is up there, not sure I want that harsh a winter. I know it is not the same place, I remember seeing pictures and slides my dad took (still have them) when he lived in Michigan and the Upper Peninsula and going to college up that way. Shoveling several feet of fresh snow off...

    The Snowdropper (1977) with Peter Sallis

    Nah, an old geezer from small town 'burbs / rural-ish, I guess. Not big farm land and not big city either, a nice medium in between. Some neighbor friends had room enough for a few horses and further down the road other friends that had small farm lands. Not near the scale I imagine yours...

    The Snowdropper (1977) with Peter Sallis

    A thriller movie based on a play and taking place in Wales with Peter Sallis, Peter Vaughan and Fiona Walker. Saw it show up on Classic British Telly from the You Tube thingy. I've not seen it yet, but from the Wiki page it seems to be a different Peter Sallis than we are used to in LotSW...

    Gentle Comedies

    Anyone familiar with "The Glums" if it is worth a watch? I found it via Patricia Brake and 'young Pike' of Dad's Army. Believe it is based off a radio show "Take it From Here" from the 1950's. Also wondering about "The Kit Curran Show" that Foggy is in. Found them on Classic British Telly...

    A Couple of DVD's for Sale

    A bit late to the party on this one, haha. Was trying a search here for "The Glums" to see what people thought of it. Will try asking in "Gentle Comedies" so I do not muck up this thread. :-)

    Who Lived in....

    Marina (or her mom?) while Pearl and the ladies were having a hill side picnic to spy on Howard. The guys come by with a bath tub on their heads. Episode name escapes me... thinking on it. "Stop That Bath" :fp:

    Flight path.

    All the talk about the helicopters as well as car and ground traffic for the Silverstone event reminded me of a video I watched some months ago on TV coverage of the Tour De France. The logistics behind moving all those people from point A to point B for Silverstone and recording the Tour De...

    Topographical Question

    That was the source of my confusion, newfangled measuring system. Had me thinking the country was a few hundred miles longer than it is. :)
