    Had to go out yesterday evening and spent the whole time avoiding TVs, radios, internet, phone messages etc. and telling people not to mention the match as I was recording it for when I got home. Got home, settled down on the sofa and . . .

    Still, this is one day I'm pleased I work 7-3.

    It was even "flooded out" in that episode too. Life imitates art.


    (Sorry if I've just spoiled it for anyone who was trying not to find out what happens at the end of the episode)

    Yes it was, they spent a couple of hours in a church trying to avoid him and the radio etc.

    No repeats of The Likely Lads as one of them wont agree to repeats being shown -- means they miss out on a lot of money.

    My dad recorded that episode for me a while back, said it was a classic, and we watched it together, absolutely brilliant. "England F...."

    I haven't seen that episode since 1994 (world cup year) when they replayed it but what a classic.

    wasn't born when it was on first time round. caught one once about a year ago on UK GOLD. think it was that one with the match they're avoiding. loved it so much i got the dvd box set.

    That's when I saw it Mario, part of BBC 2's Goal TV night, loads of quality football programmes on one night
