Loved Desmond's. My mates dad looked exactly like porkpie but wouldn't admit it

Couldn't beat Desmond himself and Lee second place then pork pie and Matthew

So glad it's being re run

Must be on net flicks or something

Was Matthew the one who kept saying "there's an old African saying..."

AddickUpNorth

Matthew was a funny character.

Don't think we've had one since Leeds away last season if I recall.

Great show. Caught a few recently. It was 89-94 I think. Looked it up on IMDB the other day. Sad to see that the guy who played Matthew died quite young.

Edit he was 58 so relatively speaking

London Live showing some great old, less well known, Ealing comedies Sunday evenings, also some great BFI films on Saturdays.

I played against him a couple of times. Decent player - turn of speed and good in the air. Of course, that was 15 bloody years ago now, so he's probably a slow fat fucker like me now.

Elthamaddick

he's definitely put on a few pounds, could tell he'd played a bit though
