Is it just me?
There seems to be a bit of life returning to the forum in the last few weeks.
I hope so, cos I can't be arsed with pissing about on Facebook with all the bairns posting selfies and pictures of their bollocks and the like.
Happy days

Read it several times. Although he is supposedly ' difficult ', I came away thinking what a self effacing, honest, decent bloke.

I wish!!
Just been watching S2 again, still finding little bits of dialogue I missed, watching on a laptop with headphones, and got quite excited just at the picture!

Apologies about phone changing spellings. Load of shite.

I've seen similar things happen to blokes in my work life, proud men with skills reduced to doing crappy jobs, usually in debt with a whiff of the scotch about them. What's quite amazing is Tim Healy's performance, I just 'did the Google's on him, and during the filming of S2, he was only 33, just a...

Blimey, I didn't expect that it would be so much to be honest. Ta, that kind of puts it into perspective. It's been interesting to watch in that way, everything they do is based on cash, no debit cards and the like, and no mobile phones etc. I remember it well, still not quite convinced I need to go...

Hi all. In rewatching S2 yet again (once a year for 33 years...scary) I still see and hear things that missed me in the past. Perhaps in past watching a I was focussed on different things, or pissed.... But what struck me in the last week or so was how Den was tied to Ally Fraser, basically having t...

Thanks for the good wishes from you all, it's been nice to see a bit of activity back on the forum. I'm settled for now, but whilst moving about, kipping in some shite places, and even now, because it's a bit cramped, I've kept the picture in my mind of Hut B, and the big room at Thornely manor. It ...

Daft really. A couple of days off work and I've practically finished series one. What's even more daft to me, is that I remember watching them at 9pm on a Friday night when they were first broadcast, and I was just a kid. In my innocent little mind back then, it seemed to be so exciting, living away...

....and sod the rest eh!

Thanks both, appreciate that.
Certainly is a strange world.
I don't do Facebook either, so looks like I'm left behind too then!
Cheers

Hi all Been about a year since I posted on here, I was being evicted from my dwellings under a bit of a cloud and slightly in the shite. Lee came good and cheered me up with some goodies, and since then I've had me head down and arse up grafting. Ive had a couple of days off work and found myself dr...

Tim That was the best xmas present i could have had this year. Memories....a grown man of advancing years almost in tears watching that. Series two was around a very significant point in my life, leaving home etc..first tate of independence and goin just slightly off the rails. In equal parts I am s...

There is so much to enjoy in the third and fourth series, but realism is not one of them. It was great to meet up with older versions of them all, but, in my humble opinion, it was such a wasted opportunity. I have heard Jimmy Nail sing live, and he has a magnificent voice, and great character, and ...

Being a bit drunka nd mixed up sounds ok.
Sounds like the whole ethos of my life to be honest.
