    I used to love six million dollar man , if my mum or dad asked me to pass them anything I used to always do it in slow motion while making the tv show sound, it got to the stage where it was quicker for them to get it themselves. :D

    The opening scene in Golden Gordon is a classic. We've all been there.

    He’s a big bugger, it would probably take more than 6 million dollars

    Secret Army - a really well-acted, tense and theatrical series, not the kind of thing Saturday night TV does anymore.

    All about opinions I suppose. I know people who love these shows but generally American shows don't appeal to me. Taxi was ok and I did kind of like Benson back in the day.

    I love The Simpsons and Family guy is ok so yes I accept these in the case for the defence. And British sitcoms... well we did produce utter cr@p like Birds of a feather, Absolutely Fabulous and the awful Miranda so I wouldn't blindly defend our record in this genre either.

    I do agree there JP. Geoffrey Palmer, Wendy Craig and Rodney - what's not to like. It wasn't side-splitting funny but it was good, harmless entertainment.

    Heads up for another blast from the past. First episode tonight at 9pm on Talking Pictures TV (Freeview channel 81).
    Budgie starring Adam Faith. Originally shown in 1971. Can't remember much, but I remember my parents enjoying it.
