Jimmy Clitheroe.


SimonM if The Clitheroe Kid is in the vicinity, what with his 'sit-upon' getting a regular tanning from his aggressive, if not vaguely abusive Scottish grandfather, then can can the Navy Lark not be far behind?


Leslie Phillips - 'Good morning, how are you'?

Ronnie Barker - 'I've been on the WT all morning, sir'

Leslie Phillips - 'I'm so sorry to hear that, hope you get better soon'

Ronnie Barker - 'That's the Wireless Transmitter, sir'


They did it every week, and age never diminished it so far as I was concerned.

Really.

I recall a pop group with a similar name in the mid nineteen hundred and eighty period.

The 'singer' would affect a headband sort of affair.

Were they from the North-East or thereabouts?

One can't be sure.

Poking fun using racial and cultural stereotypes. So Bernard Manning, Charlie Williams, Love Thy Neighbour, Rising Damp, On The Buses, It Aint Arf Hot Mum, The Black and White Minstrels etc etc... Sadly poking fun at some sterotypes still remain, eg, Irish, Polish, Scousers, Brummies, Aussies - though in a few years, maybe even these will be thought of as from another time....

    • I think you need to get a grip
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
    • I love the fact that virtually everyone held their hands out when furlough payments were made yet can't equate massive debt with massive cash payments to keep the economy ticking over.   
    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
