Tim Gypsy Hill '64 Stoke sub normal 07 Sep 22 9.51pm
The Zoo Gang. Barry Morse, John Mills, Lily Palmer and, er, um, someone else I can't remember. Ex WWII spies with animal code names. Mills was 'Elephant' with a decent memory, and there was a fox for cunning but I can't remember which one. Also a tiger and a leopard, not sure who they were or what they were good at either. It was set in the French Riviera, and they were getting finances from robbing bad guys to fund themselves. Or something like that. I've asked others during my adulthood, and nobody has a clue what I'm talking about. Systematically dragged down by the lawmakers

Originally posted by Allanc Who remembers Bonanza ? When the map catches fire, reminds me of a Vindaloo curry Yep, my favourite in this was 'Hoss' Cartwright played by Dan Blocker. Always managed to get into a fist fight with someone as I recall. Another western series I enjoyed was Wells Fargo starring Dale Robertson. Thought he had a great sounding voice. I remember going to Boston in the 90s and seeing a Wells Fargo office and was thrilled the company still existed. Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

Rising Damp. I also liked It's a Knock Out, mainly for Eddy Waring's laugh. There was also a sports competition series called Superstars, I think.
