    I need your help Winos

    Not even sure if I had heard the name before you mentioned him, Barry. I'm guessing no relation to Sam Elliott. :)

    I need your help Winos

    From Google: Fred Elliot's - "Scotch and Thread" - what is it? — Digital Spy It is in fact, a "Scotch and Threat" - Meaning he likes his Scotch with only the slightest hint (or threat) of water, or maybe no water at all.

    I need your help Winos

    That sounds like an amazing treat! Been awhile since I have had a nice single malt. Can't say I have tried Balvenie yet but I am really tempted by your idea to find a bottle. Hope you can find a bottle and please share what you think of it.

    First of the Summer Wine on YouTube

    I found someone has posted them on YouTube, for those who have yet to see First of the Summer Wine or wishing to watch again that do not have the DVDs. They go by the username knockitoffnow89. Seems to be full episodes and not mangled by anti-CP trickery (only watched a bit of the 1st ep)...

    Why did season three feature Gordon?

    Hiyas bigcat, Since you are making your way through the series of Last of the Summer Wine have you also checked out our forum member theatrically_inclined 's excellent "Summer Wine Decanted" series on YouTube? He has crafted a wonderfully informative set of videos on our much loved show...

    Dog or Cat

    Dog guy, me. Had more dogs than cats over the years and more partial to them. Some of the cats I have know have been really friendly but most, well to quote Rupert Rigsby of Rising Damp "If they could handle a tin opener I wouldn't see them for smoke." Also had a 'The Flat Cat' cardboard...

    Getting Sam Home Remastered

    Sounds fantastic. Would be nice to see it on the interwebs sometime. Here's to hoping they remaster the rest of the episodes. :18:

    Tom's Waldo dog puppet question of sorts

    Those are amazing, ferret! She does great work. You have given me the idea of maybe a cute, small ferret as a nod to Compo. The ones I have looked at on eBay / Amazon are a bit larger than what I had in mind. They were about a foot or so long. Was thinking something more jacket pocket...

    Tom's Waldo dog puppet question of sorts

    Do any of you know of a mini-version of Tom's Waldo dog puppet available? Or, something that looks similar? Or, another Last of the Summer Wine iconic type item - a small Welly, perhaps? I ask because I had an interesting idea occur to me the other night while planning visiting locations of...

    Wind Power

    Thanks, Terry. When I said Packhorse Bridge area in the previous post I actually meant Eastergate Bridge area. I have found several hiking routes via Komoot that go to the March Haigh Reservoir and back to Marsden area. Which passes Eastergate, Standedge Tunnel and Packhorse Bridge...

    Wind Power

    Great picture. Is it possible to walk / hike to the Wind Power rocks (Marsden Moor View) from Marsden/ Packhorse Bridge area? I reckon there are trails down through the valley since there does not seem to be a direct road route. Blake Lea Ln seems to go about halfway there from Horseshoe...

    It's very odd

    I have downloaded it, thanks. Not had a chance to have a proper sit down and watch the whole thing yet. Only a quick skip through it glance to ensure it downloaded correctly.

    It's very odd

    Thanks, Terry. Believe I have heard of VideoProc before, are you happy with it? I must have been thinking of something else when you said AI magic.

    It's very odd

    I would not mind downloading a 3GB file to see what an enhanced LotSW episode would look like. Do you mind me asking what AI you are using? I would love to give something like that a try on some of my DVD episodes. Is what you did in 1080p for the larger file size, or have you tried using...

    Our Alvin

    Oh, wow. Very interesting, thanks for this Onslow. Can see that the lovely Vicki Michelle from 'Allo 'Allo is in this as well. Visions of her and Maria in their French waitress uniforms are now dancing through my head. Images of egg whisks, wet celery and flying helmets... :). Barmy Dale...

    Hmm, how often did we see Nora in curlers?
