Waffle On Podcast from Meds

No but you can do it and I'll keep it safe. Next waffle is a Christmas special all about old Christmas TV. Next is Blackadder 2.

Yes, Rowan Atkinson!
His Mr. Bean was quite popular, even my English teacher mentioned it and described the episode where he bought the pan and brought the fish.
Lots of scenes that are very vivid in my memory.
Black Adder was on TV, too, I think it profited from Bean. Would be nice to have in on DVD, I would watch it right now.
Looking forward to your podcast!

Curious what will come up in Christmas TV. Did you have shows produced for this season or will it be the movies that run on TV around this time?

I'm actually off work for a few days from Tuesday onwards and am hoping to get a few MP3's done for podcasts I listen to.(provided Mrs Studfarm hasn't already filled my week up with chores that is! :) )
Remind me on Twitter next week if you see me wasting time tweeting, cheers :)

Actually, Dangelus reminded me of the Heads And Tales singing chaps name tonight. Derek Grifiths and I started searching Wiki and IMDB etc. I used to love him....him and Johnny Morris!

Derek Grifiths probably could warrant a whole episode...

You see what you do to me....now I'm thinking how much I loved Johnny Morris on Animal Magic. What did I do before Waffle On!!?? :)

We have special Christmas episodes, and of late they are rubbish as years ago Christmas day tv was awesome. Plus this episode of waffle on will be done at a party so expect slurring :)

oh Derek Griffith and you know who else is awesome. The one and only Brian Cant. Top bloke.

Brian Cant! Now you're talking! :)

Meds! I just recalled another one for the lists:

What would a review of vintage britcoms be without --- Alf Garnett! Till Death Us Do Part

Meds · November 30, 2009, 02:06:34 AM

We are going to do a show on programmes that couldn't be made today and both Alf Garnett programmes will be mentioned.
I think after what Antony said I will put up a podcast schedule. :) keep requests coming.

An American knock-off of Alf was in 'All In The Family' - which was a huge show in the states from 1971 to the late 70's early 80's. "Archie Bunker" was our version of Alf. You couldn't get away with today what he did on that show.

Meds · November 30, 2009, 02:55:55 AM

Yes and the thing is it was so well written that you knew the bad guy was Alf. As Warren Mitchell said it's the racist idiots that the show pokes fun at.

Thats what I can't understand about great comedies like "Love Thy Neighbour". They won't re-show it because of the racist dialogue and comments...however, the only racist and bigotted comments come from the character that is the subject of ALL the ridicule! This show does more to combat racism than anything else that currently springs to mind.....

...and I include Stevie Wonder and Paul McCartney's "Ebony and Ivory" song...... :)

ps. It was Paul McCartney, wasn't it!??!!

Curses! I'll have that blasted song in my head all day now!

LOL
