Talking Pictures TV

I assume we are all nostalgia buffs so here is some news from the TV channel:

We’re also getting ready for the first Saturday Morning Pictures on 6th February. We’ve got the carpet sweeper out in the stalls and the usherette has been stocking up on Lyons Maid. Get your badges on and form an orderly queue, as this line-up is not to be missed. Deep breath…we have … Popeye, Zorro, The Lone Ranger, Flash Gordon, Champion The Wonder Horse AND Superman. Add in Cup Fever from the Children’s Film Foundation, featuring George Best and Nobby Stiles, and why would you be anywhere else?

I'm enjoying Hazell on Monday nights which I never watched first time around as well as Upstairs Downstairs. Now if only they can get the Range Rider and Wild Bill Hickok TV shows.

I enjoyed last night's final Hazell. Not only was it filmed here in Rotherhithe but Hazell bought his mate, hiding out from the police, some jellied eels and double pie and mash. Hazell hired a car and I recognised the car mart as the one just a few yards up the road from me.

Well, that's me with the Champion The Wonder Horse theme song stuck in my head.

What about the William Tell Overture?
