I recorded them from Talking Pictures TV along with Space Patrol.

The Popeyes were:
Popeye Holiday Special 1975/76/77 (1976 has centre pages missing)
Popeye Winter Special 1976/78

Only paid £13.08 including postage. Three were Good+, one was fair and the fifth had the centre pages missing.

I saw that article. I've only had pie and mash twice since my local shop shut in January 2025.

Sorry posted twice and, for some reason, it doesn't alow me to delete one of them.

Sixties series The Baron begins a run on That's TV from tomorrow (Monday) night. I love seeing the shows I grew up watching being repeated.

I won five Popeye Specials (Polystyle) on ebay and collected them on Thursday. None of them have been indexed on Grand Comics Database which is why I bought them.

And last week Paula Wilcox was in the Dustbinmen and Yootha Joyce was in The Fenn Street Gang. I'm looking forward to Leena Skoog turning up in two episodes of the latter in the next few days. Google her name and see why.

Planet of the Spiders is on U&Eden tonight.

More Doctor Who episodes next Tuesday 27th. The Monster of Peladon (6 episodes) and Death to the Daleks (2 episodes but this was originally a four parter). Anyone know why Death to the Daleks has been halved?

You can always ask the editor Barrie Tomlinson as he is on X and always replies to queries.

The High Noon stage review wasn't so good in the London Standard saying the F word was used a lot.

I think Trigger was stuffed and is available to view maybe in a Roy Rogers museum. I'm enjoying the show and recording it onto USB stick. They seem to be airing odd episodes though, going from S2 E1 ...

I've watched Open Range several times, unusual for me given its not vintage, but the dialogue is just how you imagine they spoke in late 1800s. Some great scenes and a superb final shootout. Reading today's Metro I see there is a stage production of High Noon in London until March 6th. 4 star review.

Forgot to mention The Westerner with Gary Cooper and Walter Brennan. Some great humour in it.

Red River, Rio Bravo, The Searchers, Once Upon a Time in the West, the Dollars Trilogy, The Far Country, Adios Sabata, My Name is Nobody. But I love all the James Stewart/Anthony Mann films and any starring Audie Murphy or Randolph Scott. Big fan of Open Range as well for a later western .
