I just watched the episode where the Slaters are I introduced and am in awe of myself at how much I remember from when it was first shown!
Am I right that it was 2000/2001 or thereabouts? If so I was 11/12, and I feel like I'd only watched it a few months ago. It's funny how much more memorable certain characters and episode arcs were than now. Even mundane things like Gary chatting up anything that moves and Lynne having to drag him from the Vic, I don't understand why I remember all this
