Thanks LG, ditto to pp, some great clues. I didn't know all the shows but a nice trip down memory lane for the 70's stuff / repeats of some 60's stuff I managed to catch. Just sad my favourite, Columbo, wasn't there,
Thanks again LG, very enjoyable.

Thought Banacek was one of my best and it was answered in the first couple of minutes, oh well glad to enjoyed it.

That's how it goes sometimes LG. I had a clue in my last films list that took me a while to sort out, but it was answered very early in the quiz, lol.

As soon as I saw Ostrava, I thought of the football team.

Was going to put Prague but thought that would be too easy so put in Ostrava to no avail.

when is anyone up for a bands/singers quiz?  I was thinking of putting one up Saturday early pm, but can fit in with anything anyone else has planned.

Not sure I can make that one squares, got a mate coming round for a few beers in the afternoon.

Hi squares, I've got nothing on the go at the moment, Saturday sounds good for another bands/singers quiz :)

Saturday early pm it is then

Your challenge this week is to create a clue for "The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band"

Unruly zoo had bad bond, then? Good!

Very good Tim.
A colleague challenged me to anagram the full title of "Dr. Strangelove..". There are some promising words / phrases in there, but still working on it! Might need a few anagram servers working in parallel!
