The Thorn Birds

[BAKERS DOZEN]

Just noticed that this is on the True Entertainment channel at 11.00am tomorrow and then daily. Will record it and wait until Mr BD goes to one of his rugby matches and have a nice few hours with Richard Chamberlain and co. (Virgin 189 and Sky 184 and Freeview 61 if it helps).

Thanks BD for the heads up. One of my all time favourite books.

I loved that series. It must have been about 25- 30 years ago.

[BAKERS DOZEN]

First shown in 1983 I think, so 34 yrs old. Does not seem as long ago as that but time does fly.

Thanks for that .

I might watch it too, we were abroad when it was first on although I've read the book.

[KUSTARD]

Loved it. Got the DVD. Also, did you notice, they are showing "When the Boat Comes in" as from next Saturday on Drama. Another programme well worth watching again.

[BAKERS DOZEN]

Thanks for that Kustard. I really enjoyed that first time around. Will have a look and see if it has aged well.

I noticed When The Boat Comes In too, another we missed when abroad that I'll be watching. Wish they would also show The Wonder Years again, I looked to buy it for the grandchildren last Christmas but it was about £90, OH has found some episodes on line, they love it.

Thanks for that, BAKERS DOZEN. I found it, and have got it on record. Gosh, it is a long time ago.
