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.

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...

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.

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.

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 ...

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...
