I used to have nightmares involving The Mysterons-those lights moving around the room, spooky!

For Kids:

Bod, Pure genius.

Mr Ben

Take Hart.

Camblewick Green/Chigley/Trumpton.

Dungeons & Dragons (did it ever end?)

Hong Kong Fuey


For big kids:

The Invaders (did this ever end?). "michael vincent, a man, too weary to continue his journey pulls into a deserted diner?'

The Prisoner (not the rubbish remake, the original).

Anything by Lew Grade (Man in a suitcase, The Persuaders etc)

Randal & Hopkirk Deceased (the original).

Ever decreasing circles

The World At War

Was bored the other evening and aimlessly flicking through channels came across The Sweeney on ITV4. Apparently it was the first ever episode.


John Bindon and Alan Lake both playing villians. (Life immitating art or art immitating life?).


Also Brian Blessed and "Dot Cotton" in early T.V.roles.


But the most fascinating bit about watching this was outside location shots of E.D., particularly DHFC old stadium.


Made in 1974.

The music always reminds me of wandering around carnaby street thinking you were really part of the whole swinging London thing, then jumping the night bus home to Camberwell Green and realising that most of 60's London was very much removed from the media hyped image of the era. We still had gas lamps and an outside toilet on meeting house lane!

    • I can't answer your question. But on them generally: it's changed hands in the last year or so, I think. I paid £35 for interior and exterior and they did a crap job. I'll go to the one on Herne Hill (or just do it myself if health allows) next time.
    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
