Yeah, probably. I saw Eddie Izzard, Al Murray and Jo Brand up above the EDT back in the 90s.

Another one who is amazed at how old the cars look and would have guessed it was footage from 1988 not 1998!


But then, of course, most inhabitants of ED in 1998 would have been modest of income and driving an old car anyway.


When we moved here in 1996 we drove a 1988 Astra (F Reg in old money).

I'd add Graham Norton & Phil Jupitas to that list too

Yes that sounds about right to me


He did something about "You kings, you kings" and sawing which I shall never forget, in case that helps anybody who thinks he might have done more than one gig at the EDT :))

re dating - the following certainly confirms a date in or post 1996


The aspiration was to provide a bus along the length of Underhill Road, and this was partly achieved from early in 1996 as the P13 was diverted along Upland Road and Underhill Road. It became possible to serve the full length of Underhill Road later that year, although buses towards Streatham have to make a small diversion via Melfort (sic) Road due to turning restrictions.


This from:- http://uktransport.wikia.com/wiki/London_Buses_route_P13

I definitely saw Sean Lock at the EDT, probably around 1995.


I also saw Eddie Izzard do impro show probably 1995ish - it was warm-up for his West End run and the queue stretched down Lordship Lane. It is possible that Nunhead legend Lewis Schaffer opened for him.

Hi everyone, I made this film, I was driving and my wife was filming, so I can assure everyone this was filmed in 1998. We used to live in one of the Prefabs in Underhill Road from 1953 to 1970, in 1998 I took my Dad back to East Dulwich for a trip down memory lane.


All the best, John Chinery

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
