    Anyone else dreading the BBC classic remakes?

    I liked Dear John at the time. Never seen it since. That's another of John Sullivan's creations. He first came to my attention with Citizen Smith. Not sure if that's his first ever sitcom though.

    Disgraceful. Why does anyone buy papers like this and does anyone actually stop when they hear stories like this? I remember the Liverpool Hillsborough thing and that's it. Why don't we all as individuals show a bit of moral fibre and say we will not accept this. A lot less people reading...

    Oh, actually just found it. How embarrassing. :( Just click on your icon and they are there. Ha, ha! Never tried that before. :)

    I am not sure whether I got my likes back or not, but can't say I am too fussed. It's not something I generally look at to be honest and people usually have to remind me how many posts I have made. Because I nearly always post on my tablet, I don't think that information comes up anywhere for...

    You could have told me after I had finished eating my breakfast. :(

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    You sure they ran? Wouldn't they have been in toe sandals or flip flops?

    I know, Daz. :) You keep mentioning it and it IS on my list. Must get round to it and I will, I promise. :)

    Muslims, grrr!!! They're nothing but trouble! There's no such thing as a good Muslim, grrrr. Need to kick them out! I blame Merkel! Grrrr, knee jerk reaction, grrrrrrr!!!!!! I think that just about covers it. Do you want to close the thread, Nick?

    I wonder if West Ham will allow him to be cup tied. Possibly not.

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    Then you will know the truth, or should do anyway. Pretty much reduces me to tears when I am there. The earth is salty, so houses are sinking into the ground, with residents still residing in them. It is unbelievable to understand people still live in these places. The buildings are all...

    Ah, my favourite place! Keresley I mean. I like it so much I am spending a whole year there again this year. Hoe you have a lovely break, Daz. You deserve it by all accounts. :)

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    Not so sure. Would agree, but they are putting up café's alongside that stretch, so it might be a bit too intimidating and high brow for that lot. ;)

    Anyone else dreading the BBC classic remakes?

    Can't find it. Could be The Train Now Standing, with Bill Frazer, but maybe it just didn't get made. As for Rise and Fall, it had a lovely, district quirkiness to it and Rossiter simply has a ball. That show had an awful lot of catchphrases, but again I feel that was parody and deliberately...

    Anyone else dreading the BBC classic remakes?

    Going Straight just didn't work at all. Very lame. As soon as they took the concept out of the prison the whole thing fell down. I'm sure I heard Clement and La Frenais say it was a mistake. Can't remember the other one they did which they admit was absolutely terrible. Didn't last long at...

    You too, Daz. Don't work too hard! :)

    Anyone else dreading the BBC classic remakes?

    Cheers, BBR. I actually have the Porridge scripts and they are brilliantly conceived and very fresh still. Porridge very nearly didn't get made because of its groundbreaking concept. The thought of the 'heroes' all being villains and locked up behind bars almost resulted in the BBC turning it...

    Mowbray's favouritism

    I think Tudgay has become a legend in some people's heads. The more he doesn't get picked the seemingly better player he appears to be.

    Why don't we just agree to disagree on everything. Will make life a lot easier from this point forwards.
