  • One or two cheesy bombshells that had totally slipped my mind in there.

  • Simon May's 'We'll Gather Lilacs' - yikes!

  • Laurie Lingo & The Dipsticks were the reason I laughed at the polar bear in the hot air balloon in the film 'The Golden Compass'. 'Ooh look, a bear in the air' was on this viewer's lips!

  • Jimmy Osmond IS Pauline Quirke!

  • I do agree with his view of Pans People. Even as an exictable early teen they never did it for me, even tho i turned out to be reassuringly hetrosexual!

  • a legend! thanx for uploading this
