My ultimate disappointment....The Goodies!

So upsetting to watch them again. At the time I practically needed to wear Tena to watch.
More funny nowadays is to watch old Tomorrow's World.

Hancock's Half Hour is still funny.

Hancock's Half Hour is still funny.

Yes it is. I've just been listening to an episode.

No-one does mindless thuggish violence like The Professionals any more. It used to be wholesome family viewing.

That's a good idea! Where is it?

I've got a feeling that I don't want to ask.

i quite like the first series and think it still stands up ok - hey it's got Brian Blessed doing his barbarian king thing, and you can never get too much of that. My favourite one is where Edmund is fixed up to marry a "beautiful princess" who turns out ro be about 9. In a scene probably not possible today they're in bed together and a resigned Edmund has to tead her a bedtime story - all done in a totally innocent and non-pervy way I might add. Elizabethan one probably the best, but have to say the Great War one is the least of them especially looking back. Even ignoring the lazy Lions led by Donkeys cliche, just not as good.

Yes, I don't think the first series would have worked so well had they kept John Savident and also not brought in Tony Robinson to be Baldrick. That those two characters changed for the actual series makes sense to me that they made Edmund a more sniveling character - which is why a lot of people don't like it. I think the first series had considerably more scope to be silly than the last two series.

Hmm, Call My Bluff, worth a try?

Loved it.

The modern equivalents, 'Would I lie to You?' and "Unbelieveable Truths' have usurped it though.

There will never be another Frank or Arthur

Would I lie to you is good

A quality show.

Vega$ and Chopper Squad spring to mind... loved them as a kid, but the odd episodes i've dug up recently have proved them both to be appalling... especially Vega$... do all of Dan Tanner's female friends only have bikinis in their wardrobe

At last, everyone I've mentioned Chopper Squad to in the past hasn't had a clue what I'm talking about.

I used to watch Vegas regularly as well.

Dads Army and Some mothers do have em... Both irritating but brilliant

Just one word,...... CHiPs
