I'm kind of the same. I was actually born in 1973. I remember the late seventies as a kind of bliss. I very much doubt that it was.

We were kids. It's hot wired in us to enjoy life (unless someone did stamp on our toys)

Bannister Jnr is playing it as if he was a Scouser - without the accent because he's supposed to be from Manchester.

Don't forget the IRA, bader-meinhoff, red brigade, bay city rollers...


The Bay City Rollers were pretty cheerful!

I reckon he's confessing so that the mill will be opened again - sacrificing himself for the union.

I remember my delight when we plugged the TV Game back into the back of the TV and we cpuld play "tennis" Grin That was late 70s, acually probably early 1980s. I think we only got a colour TV in the very late 1970s as well.

Didn't I just see a post by M'Boss saying the pregnant girl did it?

We never saw B7 in colour until possibly the last seroes.

We got a colour tv in the late 70s. I didn't believe a) that the Clangers were pink, and Cool that the Incredible Hulk was green!

Just so you know, my great-granny was a slubber in a carding room. In't mill.

That was alright again!

I vaguely remember Life On Mars being good - it kept me watching.

Thanks for your company and see you next week!

They should do a sequel where the Boss gets transported to 2025.

Servie should waltz into the end of episode 52 and start chanting 5-nil at Avon Grin

And Anne was right after all. Someday soon, Tyler isn't going to win. Otherwise what's the point?

I didn't get the attempt to rob the factory, though. It's very good - looking forward to next week.

Well, it's been quite a week. Yesterday I was being cut open (dentist) and tomorrow, apparently, I'm in danger of being blown away (Storm Eowyn). I'll let you know what happens next. Goodnight, all!

Keep a tight grip on something then. Hopefully the wind will miss us here.
Night all.

Not her style at all. More likely to waltz in and nab Avon before anyone else can. She still wants Orac, remember.

Dentist sounds horrible! I'm supposed to be going to Oxford tomorrow night for a Burns supper - I'm wondering if the trains will be running.

Goodnight everyone - see you next week!

I've got some spare haggis if it's any help.
