    Benny Hill

    Alright, who else is a Benny fan? I'm a huge obsessive fan, I collect anything to do with him. I identify with him on a personal level, which is why I love him so much. I always thought It would've been cool for him to appear on Summer Wine. He could do so many characters, He would've been...

    List of edited episodes

    What episodes are edited on the DVD's? As of yesterday they're airing Summer Wine over here from the start! and I've now got a nice interlaced digital copy of the Pilot which I'm gonna restore (or at least color correct the outdoor scenes) and put on youtube. I know the next three episodes...

    Micheal Bates

    I've been watching "It Ain't Half Hot Mum" with Micheal Bates and Windsor Davies. I must say, Bates is a wonderful actor and it really shows in this series, more so IMO than Summer Wine. Blamire and Rangi Ram feel like two different people. It's almost hard to believe both are Micheal Bates.

    Early Mike Grady Appearance

    Have just been watch the Thames TV series "The Howerd Confessions" starring Frankie Howerd, and in episode 2, there's a very young Mike Grady playing a camp fellow. Just thought I'd let you guys know. It was quite odd seeing him even younger than he was in his first Summer Wine appearances.

    Did Foggy Hate Compo?

    I've been watching the Blamire years, and been really enjoying it, but I noticed something. With Blamire, although He'll go on and complain about Compo, it feels as though they have a mutual respect for each other and don't hate each other. They share their smokes (Yes, in the early years Compo...

    Explaing the visual changes in the series

    I've been dissapointed with all the wrong info going around, especially on Wikipedia, so here I am to set the record straight. From viewing all the series up to Series 15 (but have look through opening titles on series 16 and 17 which I just bought today), and being technical minded, here are...

    Saw Marina on Coronation Street!

    I just saw Marina on Coronation Street (actually on my tv screen right now!!!). I know she's not playing Marina, but the voice is still the same, so All I see in whatever character she's playing is Marina. I keep on expecting Howard to pop round the corner.

    Warmest early series episode?

    What episode from the early years do you think looks the warmest, as many of them are dark, and rainy and wet on the outdoor scenes. I vote for the Golf Episode from series 3, apart from the really bad film quality, it looks really warm and sunny on the outdoor scenes, alot like the episodes...

    Series 14 looks terrible

    Just bought the latest set released in NZ (labeled Series 15 & 16) and it seems the've just used the broadcast tapes from back then for the dvd, so what we are seeing, are transfers of the 35mm film, onto a big reel of videotape. It's false 16:10 too, with no attempt to remove the small black...
