The Hallucinating Goose Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Just bought the complete boxset of Hamish Macbeth in a charity shop for a fiver. Not a show I've seen before but Mrs. Goose says she used to watch it, and I like Robert Carlyle so worth a watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolford6 Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 (edited) I'm a big music fan but, before last night's BBC2 Neil Diamond schedule, I didn't realise how great an artist he is. Brian Johnson and Mark Knopfler have a new interview series on on Sky Arts. I watched two last night ... Tom Jones and Emmylou Harris. Both really good shows and I'm going to have to suspend my 40-year hatred of Dire Straits. Mark Knopfler is really good on this show, so he's on probation! Mind you, Tom let himself down when he took them to a Working Mens Club in South Wales and bought them each a pint of electric John Smiths.

Cannot believe even the CEO of John Smiths could bring him or herself to drink that muck . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Futtocks Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 (edited) I'd have totally missed this, but for a mention on Twitter, but Channel 5 have a series called A very British Sex Scandal and the first episode was about Cecil Parkinson and Sara Keays. I'm watching it on catch-up now and we've already had footage of broadcasters Brian Walden and John Cole, as well as insights from Matthew Parris, Neil Kinnock talking about the era but also Edwina Currie talking mainly about Edwina Currie. The latter flaw aside, it's a real time capsule and well made. Edited May 1 by Futtocks Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted.
