Well, thank you, Cap'n! Now, granted...some of these ideas did come to me the moment I wrote those passages but some of the other's have been in my mind since about 2005/2006. The game I've been describing would be the Summer Wine game that I would personally want to exist. It would most...

@wstol: Simple games, eh? (starts thinking about Last of The Summer Wine apps) @captain clutterbuck: Were I in charge of bringing out Summer Wine board games, I'd personally release several, actually: one for every era. Personally, I feel as if each era has enough material for their own board...

Yes, it's been over a year since my last post to this thread but I really should add this... I mentioned before how the world and environments of the Summer Wine game I envision would benefit from advanced gaming hardware such as the PlayStation 4. As you know, technology moves forward at a...

Oh, this is a great book! I made sure to get this when I had a chance! Going off-topic as bit but wouldn't it be great if there were books just filled with Summer Wine photographs in existence? Like, in my mind, there could be a book that focuses on the characters, one that focuses on the...

Now, the thing is I do like Big Day at Dream Acres (I have a soft spot for the Seymour episodes) but I am aware it's not really popular. Is the laugh track one the reasons why it's not well liked? Maybe but then aren't Getting Sam Home and/or Uncle of The Bride a bit more popular despite the...

Another thing from Andrew Vine's book is apparently when Peter, Bill, and Brian would be in their caravan, they wouldn't be chatting it up or be chummy or anything. Instead, they'd just sit quietly, apart from each other, doing crosswords or reading the paper. I was a bit surprised to read that...

From what I've observed, the more advanced Playstation 4 hardware would be able achieve a high level of realism and beauty that would bring the Summer Wine world to life. As I've mentioned before, Daytime and Nighttime could occur in this game and as the day turns to night, we could be treated...

You know, I actually wish I knew more information on how the wardrobe department handled the main cast's costumes. The way I see it, maybe they alternated between donning the exact set of clothing for some episodes and switching into duplicates for other episodes. Methinks quite a few of these...

Ah, yes...I remember visiting that site quite often back during the early days of me being a fan. I would check out the latest news of filming as well as read the older articles and the selection of photos they offered pleased my eyes, that's for sure. It's too bad they weren't able to keep up...

That seems like an interesting reason to edit him out, though that could be the case. I do feel that Crusher's scene in The Loxley Lozenge felt like a great introduction to his character. As for the special itself, that could be why some folks call it a seasonal special; maybe they brought that...

You're very welcome. :) I had fun writing this article and even more reading about how they filmed it!

(This article will contain information from Alan J. W. Bell's wonderful book "From The Director's Chair". If you've not read that book and would prefer not to see any information from it yet, you may stop reading now.) December 30, 1984. It's 7pm and viewers are tuning in to BBC1 to watch a new...

I'd be interested in knowing where else you would consider going. :) While I did say we could take one trip, we can also list other periods of times we'd consider going, sort of like the consideration period, before making our trip. That being said, one other place I'd think about going would...

It's no problem at all. :)

Ah, yes! I'm so glad these videos exist! Thanks for posting it here; there is a chance this could have a bigger audience. They even posted parts of a preview show! I've always wanted to see one of those. :)

True but it'd be around 17 years he's been playing him back in 1988.

Oh yes, it's way off. In fact, I think Seymour might have to get his cane...

Okay. There's a picture of Cleggy with Truly and Billy on this cover and as we know, Truly and Billy were not in either Series 10 or 11. So far, they've done a good job having photos relevant to the corresponding series on the previous covers but I guess whoever was in charge of this one must...

(We hear a bump that sounds a lot like Nora Batty's Yardbrush hitting someone round the head) I haven't said what year for what scene I'd go to, haven't I? Okay. So, I'd travel back to 1988 and watch them film "Downhill Racer", especially the scene where the three men slide down the hills...

I will be honest, I'd probably get real giddy if I heard Netflix was planning on offering the entire (or most) of The Last Of The Summer Wine for Instant Streaming. Unfortunately, besides the dwindling Summer Wine material on YouTube and the few episodes that are posted elsewhere on the...
