No, we had to get dressed into uniform before leaving, and that was the end of the last lesson of the afternoon.
There was one lad in my class who changed into his PE kit in his form room during break before making it to the PE lesson (something which we did in Primary School), but this...

My main excuse for not doing homework was probably because I wanted to keep school "in school" and not take it home with me, if you know what I mean. You know what it is like - you're at home, you've had your tea, watched TV, and so why should I need to do more school-related work when I finished...

You can tell that "Marti Caine" sounds very much like a stage name - she always felt to me as a caricature just like how male comedians would parody female artistes, the Grumbleweeds for example. I suppose that is how she managed sucess as an entertainer - her first husband was her agent,...

When he played Alec Gilroy in Coronation Street he always seemed to be portrayed as being the Prince Philip to Bet's Queen Elizabeth II, even though he was the landlord of the Rovers' Return.
Gil-roy of the Rovers, methinks.

Over the past few years, I have been returning to the cinema as part of my birthday celebrations each year, and the screen can be just as entertaining as the stage. Last year, all this small talk about the Barbie film made me book a ticket to see what all the fuss was about, and this year, thanks to...

So, I went to the Donald Gordon Theatre at the Wales Millennium Centre to see that Dolly Parton musical Here You Come Again. Due to one thing and another, so much happened on my birthday, and as I was a couple of miles away sorting something out which almost took all day, I got into a taxi and arrived...

There's a Tina Turner musical making its way around the country in 2025 - wherever they are on my birthday, you can bet that I will be in the audience for it! Actually, they (or she, as in the actress/singer portraying her) will be at the Cliffs Pavilion in Southend on that date.

It was on the cards because he was ill for quite a while, and so it wasn't to be too unexpected. The fact that it happened a month after England losing in the finals of Euro 2024 and Gareth Southgate resigning as manager, feels like a huge blow to English football. And of course, his legacy as the first...

No relation to Claire Palmer out of Corrie, although their hair looks a similar colour.

I know that Richard Briers did voiveovers for some, as one or two 1976 off-air ad breaks on YouTube tell me.

It's that time of year again - I booked tickets in February to see Tricia Paoluccio in Here You Come Again at the Donald Gordon Theatre which is part of the Wales Millennium Centre, and it was a bit hit-and-miss as to whether I could do due to personal reasons. They were here in Nottingham in June,...

Well, I am off to see a musical based on one of the greatest Dolly Parton impersonators who can grace any theatre stage - she might be singing Nine to Five even though it will be between 7.30 and 10.

I suppose I was a bit emotional when I actually started this thread. You can delete this thread if you like.

The Cost of Living Crisis
I have been thinking about starting a thread about this important subject for a few months now, and I have finally decided to do so after some thought. I don't know whether anyone on here has been affected by the Cost of Living Crisis, but personally it wasn't until May this year when I realised that...

I was familiar with his brother Brian Little when he was manager of Leicester City - I have got a Nottingham Forest v Leicester City match on tape from 1994 where Forest beat Leicester 4-0 when Brian managed the latter club, and Forest went: "hello promotion" along with Crystal Palace. Alan...

Armchair Thriller and Armchair Theatre were two different programmes, I assume? I vaguely remember one or two of them repeated in the afternoon during the early to mid 1980s, with a "night-time" Thames ident at the beginning, as it was shown at 9.00 pm originally? I believe that they were...
