I know this is going to make me look bad but that is the only bit out of the whole series that i remember hehe... oh come on... i was only a 15 year old boy :-)

I hope they repeat it again one day.

Well, if anyone gives you any trouble about it, just tell them you like this scene because of its strong feminist message :)

A superb series.

I really liked this show, but I never saw it repeated. I bought the VHS tape, but they cut so much out! I would love to see the original series uncut.

I lived in the village where they filmed a large part of this they turned my school hall into a dressing room

I remember watching this in the early 90s when I was about 10. I also remember Martin Kemp playing a sinister satan-esque character and some garden statues coming to life for momentary poses. A bizarre series.

Loved this series, actually have a copy on VHS but they heavily edited it to fit it on tape. It's on;y 3 hours long so I think they cut it down by about another 3...loved Carmen, great character!

@opranoodlmantra Lol that would cause me even more grief... well from other guys anyway.

I like the way you've already said what the music is in anticipation of a thousand people messaging to ask what it is :-)
