I used to have nightmares involving The Mysterons-those lights moving around the room, spooky!

For Kids:

Bod, Pure genius.

Mr Ben

Take Hart.

Camblewick Green/Chigley/Trumpton.

Dungeons & Dragons (did it ever end?)

Hong Kong Fuey


For big kids:

The Invaders (did this ever end?). "michael vincent, a man, too weary to continue his journey pulls into a deserted diner?'

The Prisoner (not the rubbish remake, the original).

Anything by Lew Grade (Man in a suitcase, The Persuaders etc)

Randal & Hopkirk Deceased (the original).

Ever decreasing circles

The World At War

Was bored the other evening and aimlessly flicking through channels came across The Sweeney on ITV4. Apparently it was the first ever episode.


John Bindon and Alan Lake both playing villians. (Life immitating art or art immitating life?).


Also Brian Blessed and "Dot Cotton" in early T.V.roles.


But the most fascinating bit about watching this was outside location shots of E.D., particularly DHFC old stadium.


Made in 1974.

The music always reminds me of wandering around carnaby street thinking you were really part of the whole swinging London thing, then jumping the night bus home to Camberwell Green and realising that most of 60's London was very much removed from the media hyped image of the era. We still had gas lamps and an outside toilet on meeting house lane!

    • Today Lukasz hung multiple pictures inside and new door numbers outside, reasonably priced, very tidy, efficient and quality craftsmanship, I recommend.  
    • Vance is something else.  That's not a compliment 
    • It was a marketing approach to get kids to do exactly the opposite.  ie watch the programme.  'Why don't you' was very progressive at the time. It encouraged kids to partake in craft type activities.  Creative, just like the skatepark https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Why_Don't_You%3F
    • I agree its good to have a conversation about what Lordship lane really needs and I feel we are doing that in this forum; and some trying to steer it away from what commerce needs (lordship lane) and toward what people need, particularly our future generations who are being left a fractured future and are responding with higher suicide rates and depression.  no doubt the world of profit will win, but that is why some of us wish to speak out even if in vain.   I agree with you that there may be some underage drink drugs but would we all prefer that to be done behind closed doors .... I think more dangerous actually.   I applaud your optimism that dulwich estates could consider a skatepark into Dulwich park, maybe, although it could have closing time, insurance, safety issues. It would be great if a developer wants to include a skatepark, but I wonder what he would gain from that in terms of his profit.  I would rather give the benefit of doubt to those who leave behind the empty digital world and bravely try something communal, generative, challenging.   In the 1970s a tv programme urged teenagers to  "turn off your TV set and do something less boring instead" only some families can afford clubs......
