SOLLY ATTWELL

Terrible ride. More daylight down a coal pit.

oy vey

Rodney :  Solly Atwell he's more bent than the villains , after he represented them when Uncle faked a fall down the pub cellar   

Del Boy :  He's been down more holes than Tony Jacklin , after they were rumbled.   

Looked good for a place at the very least until jockey switched and switched and switched in an attempt to find some daylight over final three hurdles. One to keep an eye on.

Best line in that episode was when the brief said to Albert, you were based in a storage depot on the Isle Of Wight, hardly overseas is it and Albert replies, "You want to try walking it"

Was a great comedy show but they made the classic error of not knowing when to stop and last few series verged on the ridiculous. That`s one thing about Cleese, he knew when to stop with Basil. Mrs Richards episode was an all time classic.

Mrs Richards: When I pay for a view, I expect something more interesting than that.
Basil: But that is Torquay, madam.
Mrs Richards: Well it's not good enough.
Basil: Well may I ask what you expected to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House perhaps? The Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically across the plain...
Mrs Richards: [interrupting.] Don't be silly. I expect to be able to see the sea.
Basil: You CAN see the sea! It's over there between the land and the sky!
Mrs Richards: I'd need a telescope to see that.
Basil: Well might I suggest you move to a hotel closer to the sea. Or preferably in it.
Mrs Richards: Now listen to me. I'm not satisified but I've decided to stay. HOWEVER, I shall expect a deduction.
Basil: Why, because Krakatoa isn't erupting at the moment?

hes putting it on the stage. mistake imeo

shows how barmy things have got that the fave brit sitcom of all time and venerated worldwide will not be shown by the bbc who have decided its offensive

Yeah, that's the classic scene out of the whole lot for me

Yeah a few of the later episodes looked tired and there was a lot of rehashed gags, the episode where Del went on the game show hosted by Jonathon Ross was about as bad as it got

True Mitolo. It Ain Half Hot Mum a classic example. One of the funniest ever. Windsor Davies and Don Estelle classic.

Just for Hulk. Gambled last time too.

So big question is: Is it under performing or is it a case of connections over estimating it?

It will win races for sure.

Saw  his sister & brother Winnie & Fred on one of piers in Blackpool approx 60  years ago.

Did Winnie play the piano? Rings a bell.

She did TMM. Just  have a distant memory of being bored to tears as 6 or 7 year old going to watch her on one of the pier theatres whilst on holiday .

Windsor Davies when he looked at the troup all dolled up in there dresses and said the classic line,
