Episode 8 then. One tortoise burns to death then another is buried alive. Also a home video (heard, not seen) of a duck being run over. What's happening.Rogg wrote:It's so good. More than but like Brittas before it went off the cliff, there's a depth which doesn't get popularly remembered.Rogg wrote:I have been watching One Foot in the Grave from the beginning again. It's like slipping on an old pair of rotting hedgehogs.
Fucking hell at all the animals that die in it though. A robin, a cat, several unhatched alligators and a snake in the first 7 episodes. Very odd.

Nice. Liz Sladen (Sarah-Jane, Doctor who) has a small part in one episode. She was the original choice to play Betty apparently.Randall wrote:I keep meaning to rewatch some mothers do ave em.
The theme tune is the show's title beeped out in Morse Code (why?!). Fun facts. Give it a watch, mate.

I have the 'New Beginnings' boxset. I don't care very much for the show at that time. Nyssa was most pleasing, however.Randall wrote:Sure I have the dvd somewhere.Rogg wrote:Nice.

The original Master sadly died at that time. He was in a taxi that drove off a cliff or something. Absolutely awful story.

I don't have much in praise of that time. Earthshock is very good tho, and not only because Adric gets blown to bits.

Love the visitation and black orchid.
The BBC always did the past better than the future.
Liked the awakening as well, and of course the caves of androzani.

Finished season 2 of stranger things over the weekend.
Not remotely as impressed as with the first one.
