  • Am I going mad?!

    How happy am I to have found this site. I have been commenting about a show I remember but no one else seems to know it. I am sure I remember it but as I would have been between the ages of 5 and 10 when it was on I could be confusing a few shows together.


    It was an 80's show and set in that time. I seem to think it was a family living abroad possibly France in a rural location. I cant quite remember all the characters but I have visions of a large old man with white hair and beard. I would say it was a drama but always had comedy running through it. I do also remember a bird that was black like a crow that possibly some how used to always drop the old man in it. This leads to also ponder if it was actually something like a Minor(sp?) bird that could repeat sentences...

    Some people have said to me am I confusing Allo Allo with The Darling Buds and Pie in the sky but I believe I can remember these shows - or is it just from a single episode in one of these shows?!

    If anyone has any thoughts I would love to know them....

    Cheers!

    Hi I think we may have had a request for this programme before, sadly it was never confirmed one way or another, maybe some of the information given may ring a bell with you

      Just throwing this one in - A Year In Provence with John Thaw and Lindsey Duncan (1993)
      'fraid I can't find a black bird - just a noisey rooster - but that's not to say Arthur wasn't in there somewhere !!
      (There was an episode devoted to Antoine Riviere, a scruffy old man who owned a Truffle wood - could it have been in this one perhaps ??)

        I actually found a programme with a mynah bird called "Arthur" in it, sadly the series Hilary starring Marti Caine in no way matches the discriptions of Momma or Pugsly
