Nit-picking point - just watched episode and felt geography of cellars was wrong or more that in both cellars Howard was tapping on wrong wall - not that between his and Clegg's. Would wall between cellars be solid and expensive stone? I would have thought brick dividing wall more likely.

Where is this filmed. I really liked the look of the road along a ridge in last night's episode as three of characters drove to wedding.

The pastor goes to the dentist for a set of false teeth. The first Sunday after he gets his new teeth, he talks for only eight minutes. The second Sunday, he talks for only ten minutes. The following Sunday, he talks for 2 hours and 48 minutes. The congregation had to mop him to get...

Cyril Knowles is correct but song (by Cockerel Chorus - Tottenham Hotspur's emblem is a cockerel) is from a later date. It made the charts in 1973. And Knowles did not score in 1967 Cup Final - though could well have contributed to one of the goals...

I already mentioned it. Broadcast on Sunday from around noon to 13:15 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_Favourites. Most remembered hosts were Cliff Michelmore and Jean Metcalfe Billy Cotton Band-show followed it and around 13:45 a series of comedy programme repeats from 19:30 on the...

Radio Luxembourg: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Dare#Radio_Luxembourg_serial The New Adventures of Dan Dare, Pilot of the Future aired five times a week on Radio Luxembourg for five years from 2 July 1951. Dan's voice was Noel Johnson, who also played Dick Barton on BBC radio.[6] Each...

A bit of across the generations in that list. My earliest recollections of radio comedy were of regular programmes each evening at 19:30 on the old Light Programme: Educating Archie Take it from Here (included the Glums which was not a separate programme in its own right). Ray's a Laugh...

More likely Bournmouth unless it was a special train. Portsmouth was an electrified line and the only steam seen there generally came to/from the west via Southampton or was on freight work. Even the Bournmouth line from Waterloo might have been unusual as 34051 was a Salisbury engine in the...

It will not be your 'laptop' itself but the spell check facility in your browser. I use Google Chrome and altered the Spell checker from English (US) to English (UK) in the Chrome Settings facility. I prefer to use the 'ise' ending instead of 'ize' in the applicably words even if Morse...

Got it. After a wee bit struggle managed to alter Google Chrome language to English (UK). :-[ :D :respect: :-[ :respect: :D

Have we touched on this before? I do get much niggled by fact that we seem to be tied to a US English spell checker. Do we have any option here? Is there anywhere we can select UK English? :13: :mad: :13: :mad: :13: :mad: :13:

I don't know why, other than the fact that I operate with an incredibly warped mind, this incident does remind me of an old story, 'The case of the negotiable cow' : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Board_of_Inland_Revenue_v_Haddock First, on the issue of the expense of the party, I totally...
