    In the Service of Humanity

    While watching the episode today a thought came to mind.There was good,clean clothes with some money in one of the pockets and a pair of shoes all sitting in a nice neat pile.What would you have done in the same circumstances? I probably would have done much the same as Foggy and assumed that...

  3. Hector

    A couple of Compo questions.

    While I mean no disrespect to Mike Berry i always believed that he was a really poor choice to replace Trevor Bannister.I also felt that after Mr Grainger(Arthur Brough)left/died the show lost that wonderful spark and by the end it was really time to close the doors for good. Hector.

    ranson malware email

    I got caught by something similar a few months ago and it effectively stopped my computer working while demanding a £100 fee for it to function properly again.No way was I going to fall for this and took my comp to my local shop who had to reinstall windows. Apparently the low lifes behind this...

    Ferrets for Dummies.

    Slightly OT but still about Ferrets....I have often wondered who handled the ferrets in LOTSW.As far as I can remember,we never saw a full/long shot of Compo handling a ferret but rather,a close up of "someones" hands. Hector

    foggy's ties

    At the end of Stop that Castle where Foggy is seen wearing some sort of Medievil soldiers uniform.I suppose t could be argued that he "might" be wearing his shirt and tie beneath but it isn't visible to the camera. Hector

    Did Foggy ever leave the UK?

    I tend to believe that Foggy did actually serve in Burma or similar but not as a sniper,advanced silent killer or he who makes no noise,etc ;D.He would probably have been in one of the support or service regiments Hector

    Wesley driving a hearse

    I find the best bit is when they tell Pearl and she collapses narrowly missing a piece of furniture.Infact,she may actually have "just" glanced off it but the memory is a bit vague at the moment ;D Hector

    Wit vs slapstick

    I enjoy both the wit and the physical humour with the wit just ever so slightly ahead.There were some cracking good exchanges between the trio,Wally and Nora and Sid and Ivy,etc.I also prefer the programme up until the end of the second Foggy era where it concentrated more on what our three...

    Link between Summer Wine and Esperanto

    Apparently Esperanto was a language designed in the nineteenth century to be easily learned but I have absolutely no idea what the connection to Summer Wine is. Hector
