lol! ;)
loved the scene when mike knocks the golf ball into the toilet, Neil throws it back and Vivienne catches it...squish... :evil:
I've only seen small parts of it, but this is definitely one show I would laugh heartily at if they were to add it to netflix or amazon prime or somesuch.Quote:

Young Ones prove that someone at the BBC were willing to take a risk on four VERY odd characters. And won bigtime. It's still awesome today :grinyes:
Yeah, the fringe stuff is often great :)Quote:

example in past few years of management RUINING something was remake of "The Survivors" series (set after a plague wipes out much of Humanity, original 70s one was awesome and creepy/gnarly as hell) and a scifi tale of Humans having ot settle another star sytem as fallout form war triggered by climate change etc made Earth uninhabitable
they made them so horribly "Middle England Middle Class" it was pathetic and they were failures, ick.
Boring schmaltz, as tense as a wet towel etc
Horrible waste compared to many of the great efforts the Beeb has put out over the years, such as "Old men at the Zoo", The Edge of Darkness etc
watch the original BBC version of "Edge of Darkness", freakin' awesome.
(note, lot of great scifi and other material did come from Middle Class England, I'm referring to an odd, stodgy outlook/social strata etc.)
Aw. The original cougar was the last Golden Girl still around.Quote:

He was a fixture of sunday afternoons during my childhood.
I may not have liked most of the music he played, being that it was top 40 hits, but he had a GREAT radio voice.
Supposedly there was a hoax involving Jeremy Clarkson over the weekend. Don't know the details, but something between a gag of his and Piers Morgan.
Will look it up later, unless someone beats me to it.
