YOU KNOW IT'S THRIIILLLEEERRRRR... 16/7/26
Cygnus Bazza
Well, if you’re pleading for Clemens-y, you got it…

Let’s try this one next: 'THE EYES HAVE IT'

Maybe the most 'famous' of the 43 episodes in the 'THRILLER' series. With added David Jackson!

Not to mention a host of other household names/faces, including:

- Dennis ‘Minder’/’New Tricks’/’Sweeney’/’sh*t songs’ Waterman
- Peter ‘Grouty’/’Wolfie Smith’s Girlfriend's Dad’ Vaughan
- Sinead ‘CB nearly ran me down when I stupidly stepped out in front of his car in Watlington 20 years ago, near where Jeremy Irons and I live’ Cusack
- Alun ‘New Tricks’/'Other Stuff' Armstrong
- Sundry other ‘it’s wossisface off wossitsname’ sorts sprinkled about. Most of them having been dinner party guests of OSP, of course – OSP being the second most famous librarian on the Horizon roster, just behind M’nila. (Nearly called her M’nola there...) M'nila asked me to say that. I'm not getting involved. In the event of a ruckus, AA can aarbitrate and Taiellin can give them a tellin' off.

Thursday 16th July, 19:45 (British Summer Time, and the living is easy)

OK, thrill me.

I hope you're talking to Mr'nila.

Probably some strange form of rustic roleplay...
 
Cygnus Bazza
Prompt start or shall we fanny around for a couple of minutes?
 
Cygnus Bazza
Started...

‘ATV’ helpfully incorporates advice on what you need in order to watch their programmes.

I have started...hanging on mode engaged
Disengaged.

1973. Ted Heath’s Britain. Grim. Power cuts. Bomb scares. Three-day week. Peters & Lee.

Peter Vaughan. Harry Grout from Porridge. Great name, I always thought, as grout and porridge look quite similar

Nope. He's busy making hay. Of course, there's more than one kind of 'thrill'. Never been thrilled by someone murdering someone yet, this is your big chance.

You either under mix your grout or have terrible looking porridge

Both, as it happens.

That man in the suit somehow reminded me of Peter Davison.

Here's our thrilling thriller music...
 
Cygnus Bazza
I guess he had to dispose of Angelina coz she was a witness
 
Cygnus Bazza
Hopefully he’ll pop it in a post box for her after he’s killed a few more people. Probably her postal vote for A Song for Europe 1973.

Dennis Waterman, Alun Armstrong – a sort of New Tricks pre-union
 
Taiellin
Why did he fall? There was no gunshot.

Used a silencer. I wish OSP would use one.

Yes, but I don't know why.

Thanks!

Not convinced they’re actual plumbers. Real plumbers don’t carry firearms. Except, of course, in Stoke where it’s a sensible precaution.
 
Cygnus Bazza
At least these plumbers have brought Grout
 
Cygnus Bazza
The least she could have done is make them a cup of tea

I'm deeply upset by that. I can swear under my breath too.
