    Tea Time questions.

    The cast of the Young Ones (minus Christopher Ryan, Mike the cool guy) worked together in several other series; Nigel Planer, Rik Mayall & Adrian Edmondson in "The Comic Strip Presents..." and "Filthy, Rich & Catflap"; and Rik Mayall & Adrian Edmondson in Bottom (which spawned several stage...

    Completed binge of every LotSW episode, on a projector

    I've been for ages planning "one day" to do a chronological binge of every series and special of LotSW. Back in the spring I got an LED projector and decided perfect time to do it, so that is what I have been doing for the summer. I’ve called it my Summer Wine Summer ‘22 Binge :) What a ride...

    That wasn't Ivy and Dilys? I assumed it was and didn't study that close.

    Nor were they likely expecting that the average viewer one day would be able to freeze-frame, zoom and examine every detail of their work.

    Something to Look Forward to

    The 2003 and 2021 documentaries both having "30 years" in the title threw me off when I was doing my chronological binge and it was quickly obvious I was watching something made after the show had ended. I didn't know about the 2021 doc at the time (it didn't have opening show titles, at least...

    RIP Miss Davenport

    Thanks for the reminder, that is something that fell by the wayside in my stash. I've got 2 episodes left in my LotSW summer binge, I have been in her episodes the last couple weeks and really enjoyed her and that Marina had a pal.

    Documentaries about Summer Wine

    I don't know if any of the other models are more resistant to burn-in, but as I noted earlier many of these seem to be of common internal parts and software. I knew not to park it on a news channel but didn't expect it to happen on a brief viewing. On a funny side of that note, there is also a...

    I shot this with 6PM light coming through. There is also a smartbulb overhead set to magenta 25%.

    Documentaries about Summer Wine

    I just project on a plain white painted wall and it looks fine. From many reports cheap screens are actually a step down from that. My older type projector I believe was 2000 lumens, my current claims 8000. I don't know if it's 4 times brighter (or if that's how that works) but it's plenty...

    Documentaries about Summer Wine

    It's been the most wonderful experience. Previously I've caught the show mostly in pairs pre-dawn (US Gulf Coast) on Gold as I had off/on access to it over years, so I have been familiar with all the characters through each series and probably half of the episodes. I had never seen the ones...

    Documentaries about Summer Wine

    That's basically what I've been doing (though I don't have that one, I did watch the Funny Side of Christmas and Royal Variety Performance). I got a projector in April and started my binge in May. It's been so fun watching it almost theatrically and when the episodes went wide-screen it's...

    Documentaries about Summer Wine

    Thanks. I'm currently winding down a straight-through binge of the series and specials and when I hit the spot where this ran what I watched was labeled as 30 year special but it was obliviously all taped well after the end of the show with references through 2010 and interviews with much older...
