My mate and I spent far more time than is healthy during our teens chuckling at the thought of a camping store using the advert slogan “Now is the winter of our discount tents”.

She’s done it again tonight. Fuck my life.
Sorry, should have made it clear - I’m in Scotland, this isn’t a Scottish case (which is why I’m puzzled in case I’m missing something). Original sentencing article here: www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-engl...
No Dolly Parton?
A monthly partwork that reprinted the hardback WH Allen novelisations (including the later and new Targets that only ever appeared in PB).
@barristersecret.bsky.social I might be too used to Scottish sentencing, but how does someone become eligible for parole 6 years into a life sentence with a 12 year minimum term? www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottis...
I won’t lie, I was thrown when I saw the size of the logs that came out of our toddler. She blocked the bloody toilet twice. Looked like Kong Kong’s thumb.
If only he’d been unsuccessful in dodging the draft, he might have learned this in Vietnam.
“Is that you, Maureen?”
Is that guy running at twice the speed of everyone else?
Whither @smershpod.com ?
Christ, the lemonade scene.
I wouldn’t give that a twist, testicular torsion can be painful.
Mincemeat?
What fucking planet is this fruitloop living on?
I remember that being the case when I was a nipper back in the 80s. Bloody Walden.
I think this is perhaps the episode I’ve seen the most. Love it. “A string of poloponies” indeed.
This remake of Threads feels a bit real.
The phrase “sore losers” doesn’t quite come close.
Didn’t he read The Welcoming Land at her memorial service?
That reminiscence of Hattie is so poignant - seems a beautiful moment of sincere love and tenderness. Tears me up every time. HJ always seemed to escape his ire in the diaries, their shared Christmases always seemed to give him some rare joy.
Oh yes, and happy birthday to my other half as well.
Kenneth Williams.
100 not out - still endlessly entertaining, eternally fascinating, and heartbreakingly tragic. A master raconteur. Love him.
It’s damn-near perfect viewing - a genuine master raconteur holding the entire audience in the palm of his hand from start to finish. I wish it was longer!
Dammit, absolute - not abject!
There’s an abject glee to his performances, at his most OTT it’s really quite something - I’m not sure he ever topped his Doctor Who performance in Timelash.
Never knowingly underplayed - but with Darrow it just *works*.
Fucking. Hell.
Dirty Dancing. Which I’m pretty sure was a 15 cert - not one of us in the class would have been old enough.
I’d have been shot if I’d ever put any new titles out ahead of release date (WHS Aberdeen). Think that’s just because the competitors used to snoop on a Saturday to make sure everyone was playing fair.
