Going back some time, b+w films on b+w TVs.

[Tilly2]

It's funny the thoughts that come into the mind when you're sitting doing not much.

Yes I do, I used to watch it with my Grandad, who absolutely loved it. I remember we were one of the only ones to have a TV in the road. It was like a piece of furniture, it was so huge. The screen had closing doors and the cabinet was made of varnished wood.

along with Johnnie Morris - difft program

all that was wrong with the Beeb in the fifties - and Daktari - with clarence the cross eyed lion

oh but Johnnie Halliday was good.   - there is a singer in France called shonnie alliday ( twist again) and he was forced back on the road by the tax man at age 85

And, of course, Armand and Michaela Denis. - "Fortunately the lions found a more attractive meal amonst the scrub and settled down to dine. For the moment, at least, we were safe."

Yes, we didn't have a TV in those days but for some odd reason it was the one programme our neighbour thought "the children would like" and my brother and I were invited round there every week to watch it. It was a fascinating show.

Long before the Hass' the first tv show I saw was;

'Billy Bunter of Greyfriars School, a BBC Television show broadcast from 1952 to 1961. It was based on the Greyfriars School stories, written by author Charles Hamilton under the pen name Frank Richards.'

Bunter was played by Gerald Campion and many years later he ran a drinking club in a basement somewhere off Oxford Street which I frequented along with many friends & TV types.
