    Haven't seen that in years. The smashing up of his home after every defeat is a scene that goes through my head every time I go home after a poor performance. Brilliant!

    I loved the front window being taped up after the clock had gone through it.

    I watched Ripping Yarns as a kid and loved it. I'm fearful if I watch it now I might not like it.

    You still will, Beds - they don't age.

    All classic tales that will never age! They were already parodies of aged stories at the time they were made.

    Loved Ripping Yarns especially Golden Gordon, probably my favourite tv series ever. Always worth a look :-)
