Re: Excel brainbox needed.
I’d advise you to go with Al’s method using the Fill Series function because this will take into account leap years. Just writing a formula for (cell +7) won’t.

Re: John Sullivan dies at 64
Steve the reason writers are solo in the UK is because they're commissioned to only write 6-8 episodes. In the US it's 13-26 (both not including re-writes). It'd be impossible to do!

AV For Dummies
Forget all the broadcasts about the pro’s and con’s of AV. It was all explained by Barry in Auf Wiedersehen Pet back in ’84

Re: Bubblegum cards
I remember a set for the Ron Ely Tarzan series that formed a “poster†on their flip sides.
There was also Bazooka Joe Bubble Gum which had a three (?) panel comic strip inside the pack.

Re: Feature on Orion constellation in a UK annual
Well remembered Abjack! I've tried to upload and image of this but the technologies not working this morning. You need to search for the Sparky 1973 annual.
It's part of a series called Tales Men Tell. Also included are The Loch Ness Monster, Gelert the faithful hound and Gog and Magog

Re: Double Double Comics
I’ve got JLA 2 and Batman 3 and this thread got me to dig them out again. I’m guessing they came out in 1971 with them having both forms of pricing on the cover (incidentally it’s Decimal Days 40th anniversary next week). Most of the material inside is dated 1966 so their must have been a huge...

Return of Catweazle
There's going to be a one off Catweazle film for ITV starring Rhys Ifans. The bad news is - there's going to be a Search For Carrot (the young boy part) series.
