Did anyone watch the video at the bottom of this week's Popbitch newsletter? Something about David Dickinson, but it's been set to private now and I'm curious!

The format isn't a ridiculous idea. I'd be kind of tempted to rebrand it, but there's no reason it can't work.

A bit OT but have been meaning to say for a while...I just love your username/ avatar and had to get this in while you're at the top of the thread. I'm old enough to remember Chorlton and the Wheelies and would wait for Fenella's outbursts. They'd have me in kinks, as a kid. My OH is younger than me and used to look baffled when I'd say, 'If you don't pack it in, I'm going to do a Fenella on you!' (meaning one of her brilliant tantrums). Knowing him, he was probably looking forward to it being a sex move!

I adored Chorlton 'Hello little old lady' and the Wheelies. Favourite kids theme tune too. :love:

Well, I love the Welsh and am from Yorkshire (can't remember if Chorlton was a Yorkie or a Lanc but Northern all the same) so it was a win-win in my book. I holidayed in North Wales as a kid and was fascinated by the different accents. Fenella's hissy-fits and Chorlton's reactions were brilliant. But she was my favourite childhood animated character. Well, maybe excepting Morph! Wonder what became of him? To keep it relevant to the thread, I last heard he'd shacked up with Chas and the happy couple are now retired to a care home in Brighton for all discarded animated/puppet characters from that era. Morph eventually forgave Chas for the drug-fuelled threesome he had with Bungle and Zippy. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Bloody loved Chorlton and the Wheelies. There were so many great theme tunes for kids shows in the 70’s/80’s. Jamie and the Magic Torch, Ewoks, Cities of Gold, Dogtanian, Battle of the Planets, Wizbit but my all time fave is the banger that was Ulysses 31.

I've just remembered some weak, cold tea about Stuart Hall, disgraced convicted paedophile. When I was at Manchester Uni, he pushed to the front of the queue in the newsagents, saying loudly to the shop assistant 'I don't have time to queue, young lady, my time is more important than theirs.' He bought a packet of fags and stormed out, but not before someone loudly said 'who the hell is THAT?' Pompous twit.

who do we think this?
Which A-list celeb has a tried and tested routine for pulling undergrads on visits to his alma mater?
The technique in question? He asks an undergrad what room she was in, then (no matter what she said) tell her that it was his old room too, funnily enough.
Then ask if he could see it, for old times sake. And once in the room, he seals the deal

Can’t stand queue jumpers. I was in Next once, and a little old lady was lurking behind a rack trying to push in halfway and pretending she couldn’t see the huge queue spiralling towards the back of the shop so I helpfully pointed out the back of it for her.
I don’t bleeping think so, Mavis. Not on my watch.

My dad was born in Cardiff¹, which is about as close as I get to being Welsh (having said that, I did spend a year at Bangor University and my brother worked in Cardiff for a few years)

¹to English parents. He has more Turkish DNA than Welsh, according to Ancestry dot com.

I used to love Chorlton and the Wheelies but Fenella used to scare the tit out of me. I was also scared of Rupert Bear. I was a very nervous child! I mean though, what the duck is this bollocks? Even Rupert looks scared!

I think that one has been spread round about a few different people. Paul Rudd is one I remember specifically.

Is Fred Talbot still alive? ETA: yes, he's 74 and living in Bollington. I bet his neighbours are pleased - Bollington's quite posh I believe.
