The making of modern Britain with Andrew Marr. And various Simon Reeve documentaries. I do like Simon Reeves programmes. I’ve also been watching Walking with elephants with Levison Wood. |

The Magic Roundabout,doooiiiing,time for bed said Zebedee.Not that I am religious ,but I watch a few of the religious documentaries.Also because I like to hear the King James version of the Bible read with an American accent.And Moab begat Agrack etc.. There was a lot of ‘begating’ in those days. And unto Enoch was born Irad: and Irad begat Mehujael: and Mehujael begat Methusael: and Methusael begat Lamech Genesis 4:18 |

Does anyone remember those adverts about plague and famine etc continuing till the Bishops reveal the writings of Jonathon something or others sealed writings,by a group called the Panacea Society.Were the writings ever revealed.One does not see those adverts now. |

There is a Fast and Furious channel on Sky. That's all they show.
Watched one last night and couldn't tell you if it was the first or last one though. They're pretty interchangeable.
Watched the Hobbs and Cross one on the way back from New York.

I got given a Gideon’s New Testament when I was at school. I’ve still got it in the book shelf about two feet away from me now. |

Anyone remember how difficult it was to connect the video machine to the television.Computers are a doddle by comparison. I have a state of the art Sony Betamax that was hardly used,a better format than v.h.s. but had to go with the flow.Just what does v.h.s. mean. They were a nightmare to connect and there was always some family numpty who couldn’t stop fiddling with the cables. Grrrrr. |

What you did need was three hands,two on the same wrist if you followed the instructions. I have a few orient and Essex videos.Wonder if they would connect to todays television sets.They would probably go rogue like the HAL 900 series.Dave,I think my mind is going. |

I’ve still got my ‘video recorder’ and ‘tapes’ up in the loft. I just know if I chuck them out I’ll need them sooner or later.

Found on an old drive...The Tomorrow Pweople and the computer converted the files last night...What I have seen so far looks really good...Probably because I liked living in thew 70's as opposed to now.
I noticed a young Nicholas Lyndhurst in one of the episodes....There were episodes from 1973 to 1979 and later ones in 1992 which I will look at.

I used to work with a geezer from that show. |

I used to work with a geezer from that show. I think it stems from living in the past and not liking how it's going today.
Doub't if the 1992 onwards stuff will be as good as the 70's episodes.
