But thats what tv needs a new age Sweeney, we should start a petition to give Gene Hunt his own series now, theres talk of a spin off from Life on Mars, when it finishes, fingers cross its the Gene Hunt show.

A mountain in Co. Kerry that looks like a dead body ( actually called Fear Marbh; in English = the Dead Man ) if viewed from a certain angle - on the last strain of the National Anthem. To stay up late enough to see it was considered a real victory over the system.

Sounds like an intitiation test, kind of?

Do we still have the national anthem last thing? Never awake long enough, or stay up late enough to know or see.

Eveer noticed how the girl writing on blackboard with a clown beside her (BBC 2 in colour ) in the testcard has eyes that follow you and she can see into your brain?

We had a big old black and white TV when I was around 4 years old and the last thing on at night was the weather followed by the national anthem.
My grandad would go around winding up the clocks before turning the TV off and I would watch the picture shrink down to a white dot in the middle of the screen. I wouldn't go to bed until it had completely disappeared.

Reminds me of that episode of The Young Ones when they're all sitting watching the little white dot.
