Now Callan is a show I could easily get back into... the acting was quality and Edward Woodward's portrayal was most exellent.

Mum and her new hubby are currently watching reruns of the Onedin Line back in the UK, so who knows, maybe the ABC here might run it again. As I recall, it was a decent seafaring drama, but it has been a long time and a refresh wouldn't go astray, given the high level of tripe being served up as television today. 

As for Press Gang, well I never got into that, though I see your pinup girl, Julia Sawalha, was in it.  For mine, she never got/gets enough airtime in Ab Fab... yeah, I like her, too.  

I saw a few episode of Sandbaggers and I recall quite liking it, but I seem to recall it clashing with something the 1st missus liked to watch... meaning I missed out if I didn't want to miss out.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing Defiance.  I like sci-fi apocalyptic things like this and Revoluion.  Defiance stars Grant Bowler, an Aussie actor who got his big break in an Oz cop show called Blue Heelers... also did some work in NZ on a show called Outrageous Fortune, which is great for a laugh.

Oh dear lord people.?!  

Workaholics on Comedy Central.

You forgot Fawlty Towers!!!!!

How could you?....

I'm not as young as I used to be... also forgot Monty Python and Not the Nine o'Clock News.

Incidentally, the hotel facade used in Fawlty Towers was in Torquay, Devon, about 30 minutes away from where I lived. 

I also forgot another fave Brit comedy I liked.... Never the Twain. 

C.R.A.F.T. disease, you know.

Oh crap...so did I.

Not only but also ...... Kenny Everitt show.....geez the English did a squillion great comedies...

Remember not to remind them about the war...

I am enjoying Person of Interest ATM

April of last year is a necrothread?

Then I must be a corpse since I was born before the 80's !

The Nightly New scares the crap out of me, seems very realistic.     

Monday Mornings on TNT

Damn, wouldn't that make a loud noise? 

Jafo is prehistoric.... born before the 60's ....

Yep, there's one or two dinos here, me included... it's just a toss up for the eldest.  Given his avatar, DrJBHL would have to be in the running, me thinks.

Old age, it really dawns on you when you realise that you had to change from measuring in cubits to feet and inches... then to metres and centimetres while remembering there's millimetres as well.  Oh it's all so confusing.
