    The Old Bridge

    Unfortunately not. Over the years we've only seen each other occasionally and that was usually somewhere halfway between where we live. I went there once for a gathering but didn't get to see the town.

    Maybe of Interest to You

    I'm not far from Mablethorpe. Have they picked there ironically because it was the butt of several jokes in the series?

    Remember 23rd April - You WILL get a warning!

    Luckily it's not compatible with my phone, but apparently you can disable the emergency alerts on devices that will work with it. Knowing our govt they'll send warnings when the temps are due to go above 30C and tell us to stay inside etc.

    British TV in the 1970s was such a small world!

    You only need to look at modern TV dramas to see the same actors popping up all the time.

    Summerwineland for just one day

    I'd also follow Eli for an hour as it would be non-stop laughs.

    Programs Getting Shorter

    I tend to watch a lot of YouTube on the TV via a Roku device, so unfortunately an ad blocker won't help for that.

    Programs Getting Shorter

    We record a lot of the things we want to watch so we can choose when to watch it and can skip the ads. YouTube is also getting worse with the number and length of ads, so at some point when I can afford it will pay for premium to be ad free.

    What the characters did offscreen

    Do you ever imagine what the characters did offscreen in the rest of their life in Summer Wine land? I have an image of Clegg reading a book or listening to the radio in the evening, but not popping next door for a brew because Pearl is too scary!

    Hopefully not the first one for which he got 50 quid!

    The west's answer to the Chinese balloon

    That's a brilliant 60s show. I have the complete series on DVD. Be seeing you...

    Series 22

    Entwistle always felt like a filler character, and definitely not as well developed as Wesley who he had a similar role to driving the others around.

    what character would you be

    I'd be Barry, but only because he had the best wife in the show!
