You fancy giving us an overseas view?

No, I think I'm in enough trouble already. LYY is definitely the man for the job.

Geez Barb, I was gonna nominate you.

Actually on this side of the pond, seems as though Bullseyebarb and I tend to be on the "RIGHT"

side of the issues while Billcat and Steeljack tend to be on that "other" side.

We could do our stint as a kinda American tag team. That way we loud, obnoxious, arrogant . . . Yanks will only "be in charge" for a couple times every other month!

I like Less' initial idea as well as the various comments. Thanks for thinking of us!

Yes TW3, what a long memory you've got Willow, I think that prog' finished in about '62!

That Was The Week That Was

A link for those of you too young to remember, (this means everyone except you and me will deny being old enough to remember it Willow)

Amendment

The picture I showed was of a famous sketch done in The Frost Report (which came later), not TW3!

An quick summary of that sketch is below:-

Of all the send-up's that appeared on The Frost Report, the best remembered, and often held as representative of the shows style was the Marty Feldman/John Law penned sketch about class. This involved 6ft 5inch Cleese standing next to 5ft 8inch Barker who in turn stood next to 5ft 1inch Corbett, and using each man's height to illustrate their standing in society. Middle-Class Barker explains: 'I look up to him (Cleese) because he is upper class but I look down on him (Corbett) because he is lower class.' Corbett: 'I know my place.' The sketch lasted no more than a few minutes but remained in the memory for so long that some thirty or more years later Ronnie Barker came out of retirement to make an updated version for a TV special with Ronnie Corbett (John Cleese was unavailable so Stephen Fry stood in for him).

I don't want to be one of those, I want to sing.
