    TV Mock: Buggernation Street

    Here's a rarity - an archive mid-70s episode of Granada TV's long-running soap opera, in which Hilda Ogden is on the trail of a bogus Weatherfield ...

    colinwjw colinwjw commented:

    Trauma was worth it, thanks, as was cleaning up the tears and snot of laughter from the keyboard afterwards. Thanks for the best "gunt" laugh in ages. This seriously deserves an award.

    ELKIE BROOKES - He could have been an army

    A single for Elkie. Didn't chart in the Uk.

    colinwjw colinwjw commented:

    It should have been an army, but alas. Way better than many of her chart hits.

    Should have been a monster hit. Hazell's voice excels here. 7" version will hopefully be included in upcoming Always reissue. Thank you for posting.

    Carolyn Jones Return to Crossroads

    Carolyn Jones, who played 'tart with a heart' Sharon Metcalfe in Crossroads discusses the time Tiswas and Chris Tarrant sent out an message live on...

    colinwjw colinwjw commented:

    Blimey, CJ has little changed from her Within These Walls/Pallisers/Xrds days. It was Zeph's character Vera Downend who was known as the "tart with a heart", but Carolyn's character Sharon Metcalfe may have inherited that title later, both being very (attr)active ladies. Thanks for this wonderf...

    A Personal Experience of the February 2011 Earthquake in Christchur

    Actress Helen Dorward recalls her experiences the day after the February 2011 quake in Christchurch, and relives the personal horror of being in th...

    colinwjw colinwjw commented:

    Remember Helen well from UK soap Crossroads in the 70s. Glad she and husband were reunited after all the devastation. That's worth so much more than the most precious antique carriage clock. Interesting post, thanks.

    Three Degrees vs. The Rew "The Runner" (1979 vs. 2010 Video Mix)

    I had NEVER known that Three Degrees sung this song. I only knew Rew sung this song. Anyhoo, since there was no music video from Rew and I love t...

    colinwjw colinwjw commented:

    Likewise, don't know who/whattf REW is. Likely me too old to know REW, you too young to know the Degrees. Agree with ZX71K, a classic destroyed.

    Peter McCann - Do you wanna make love 1977

    Sometimes the love rhymes

    that fill that afternoon,

    Lose all their meaning

    with the rising moon.

    Hold...

    colinwjw colinwjw commented:

    As a Brit firmly ensconced in the US for over 20 years, I was only familiar with the New Seekers' cover of this Peter McCann penned song, a flop single for the group which appeared on their 1978 album "Anthem". I managed to find the McCann original on CD a long time ago, but have never actually ...

    Garnock Way - Garnock Way - Episode 01

    Pilot episode of Garnock Way - the STV soap which pre-dated Take the High Road. Set in a mining town, there are threats that the pit is to be shut ...

    colinwjw colinwjw commented:

    Hallelujah. Had thought many times over the years this series was a figment of my imagination. Think I saw actor David Bannerman appear in Rents at Edinburgh's Traverse around 1979, but might be imagining that also. Great to see this obscure Scottish series again. More stv>player. The entir...
