Waffle On Podcast from Meds

I still think of conery as bond, he had set the standerd I think, while the Roger More era was more escapiest fantesy.
Now with the Dan Craig era brings things down to earth, the bond films are more realistc.  not sure about Timothy Dalton, I didn't see very many of his films, maybe only two.

Mini Waffle On about Lack of Sports on Terrestrial TV.

Another mini waffle for you and in this edition we talk about the lack of sports on terrestrial TV.  The BBC has recently lost F1 to Sky Sports, another in a long list of sports standard TV stations have lost to the bigger cable channels. If you can afford Sky then great but a lot of people can;t afford to splash and so are missing out on watching great sports for free. Cricket is lost, the majority of football games are lost and as mentioned F1 is lost but and thank goodness for a but, F1 has been partly saved by a new venture called F1 in Pubs  in which Meds attended the Australian race  in Birmingham. So join Meds and Kell as they have  a chat about what they miss and what could be done for sports on TV.

For more information of F1 in pubs click the link above it follow them on twitter @F1inPubs or on Facebook just search for F1 in Pubs

Meanwhile, in the US, we get competitive cupcake wars, tattooing battles, etc. It's actually frightening to see the similarity in mid-game chatter between the reality shows and the "real" sports...

On the positive side, though: Full Metal Jousting!!!

Waffle On about Dad's Army

A classic TV series from the late 60's made in the UK. Dad's Army tells the wonderful tale of the Home Guard during World War 2, full of warmth, humour and good old British stiff upper lip nonsense. Meds and Kell waffle on about how much they enjoy this classic tv series which ran for nine series and featured the talents of Arthur Lowe, John Le Mesurier, Clive Dunn, Arthur Ridley, John Laurie, James Beck, Bill Pertwee, Frank Williams and Ian Lavender.

Fun show about Dad's Army.  I've been to the Theford area where some of the filming was done.  Nice area.

[Meds]

Yeah I want to go there. I'll be driving through it in September so I'm planning on stopping and having a march around :)

[Pyrovile]

The wife and youngest will be in the area for sure in October for a couple of weeks.  Not sure if I'll be tagging along on this trip or not.  If you get near Kings Lynn, that is where the small shop was that I found the police box salt and pepper set.

Hi Meds, I just linsted to the waffelon podast on dads army this weekend.  when I first downloaded it I thought you were going to talk about your own fathers military service.  but then i relied that it was about a TV show after all this is what your podcast is about right.  I have never heard it this series until now and it has got me interested.  Maybe I will be able to see it one day, get podcast guys.  I did love hearding the one audio clip you had, that was very funny. 

[Meds]

LOl Well I hope you get to find it, there are quite a few episodes on you tube so head over there and have a look about :) Glad you enjoyed the show :)

Heard the episode at the weekend.  Another great one.  I did not realise how much of a History buff Kel is.  will try to get to this year's Treks weekend and have a chat with him! 

[stansnig]

How about a Life on Mars or Ashes to Ashes cast?  Gene Hunt was superb!

[Meds]

Yeah Kell knows his history, bar TV history is the next big thing we both debate about at work. I'm more into the Roman history, Kell is more the modern(ish) expert lol.

We have started to organise the next podcasters meet up. So far me, kell, Dangelus, Ori-Studfarm (i think), Dan Hughes from midmo club and darren Wright (scuttercast) are confirmed for a November catch up in.........Birmingham ;)

Waffle On about The Odd Couple.

Written by Neil Simon, directed by Gene Saks, and starring Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau , It is the story of two divorced men – Felix Ungar, the neurotic neatfreak, and Oscar Madison, the fun-loving slob – who decide to live together, even though their personalities clash. We had a great time chatting about this awesome film and we hope you enjoy listening to it.
