There are quite a few episodes of Till Death Us Do Part, the sequel In Sickness And In Health and Love Thy Neighbour on You Tube. Some of them get taken down periodically, but they seem to go back up again fairly quickly.

Certain words were bleeped out - if you are familiar with the programme you can probably guess which ones.

Alf Garnett used to call his 'wife' Else, a "Silly Old Moo".To the best of my knowledge, I have not referred to my dear wife in such terms!

I recall watching an educational program in the 60s called 'How' which was presented by Fred Dinenage. Edited by Willo (06 Sep 2022 11.20pm)

Originally posted by Willo I believe that Jack Hargreaves was a creator of the programme. Sounds right. Jack Hargreaves would describe some arcane piece of farm machinery, Jon Miller would demonstrate how a nuclear power plant works then Fred Dineage would do a trick with matchsticks. Don't remember Bunty James' contribution.

There are times I log into Netflix without a clue as to what I was watching the previous evening, or whether I had watched it to the end or still some remaining - lucky they have a "continue watching" button. Originally posted by YT These days it's more about the programmes I CAN'T remember, like last week's episode of Shetland when I'm sitting down to watch the next one! F Troop Hogan's Heroes The Beverley Hillbillies One that scared me s***less and gave me nightmares was The Tellygoons. It's the puppet thing; I was the same with Punch and Judy shows.

Willo South coast - west of Brighton. 07 Sep 22 8.49am
Back in the day, probably in the 60s, there was a programme whose name escapes me. There were three people, only one of whom was of a particular profession and they were interviewed by a panel who then had to conclude which of the three was that person. At the end of their questioning, the host asked that person to stand and seemingly there was some time before that person rose to his/her feet, sometimes much to the surprise of the panel. Perhaps those of a certain vintage might be able to furnish me with the title of this programme as it has escaped my mind.

It started back in the 50s, and was revived in the 70s. Originally Eamonn Andrews hosted and there was a regular studio panel which included Lady Isobel Barnett, David Nixon and Gilbert Harding. I seem to recall the member of the public whose occupation they had to guess came on and first of all did a little mime as a clue to their job. I remember a particular episode because a man who lived close by to us was on the programme - he was a police dog handler.
