Our favourite characters on tv

[amethyst]

We have had discusssions about indervidual tv shows how about talking about one programme at a time eg alphabet wise

I will pick todays then tomorrow someone else can choose a programme to talk about


Todays discussion is AUF WEIDERSEN PET

I have been watching the re run series on drama tv channel 20 freeview.

My favourite character has always been OZ he was so funny the things he came out with on times,he didnt beat about the bush OZ would tell you straight what he thought of you,especially the posh folk,oh ai oz working class backround from Newcastle and he was proud of that.When he came back from Germany to find that Marjorie dosent live in the flat anymore,meant he was homeless,when he went round the factory to see her she replied look whats crawled in from the brickwork,when he replied oh i have been working in Germany and been to the FALKLANDS.Oz was happy always with a bottle in his hand.Barry used to rabbit on and bore the A-- off them.Wayne jack the lad had only one thing on his mind women they dont make programmes like that anymore.

Remember tomorrow the programme is letter B and sunday C ok maybe it gives everybody a chance to choose a programme

My favourite episode is the one with Michael Elphick as the horrible violent thug McGowan who stays with the lads for a brief spell.

Dick York (1964-1969) played Darrin later played by Dick Sargeant (1969-1972) & as Amethyst says Endora played by Agnes Moorehead was the archetypical mother in law

Ade Edmondson as Eddie from "Bottom"
-- What I particularly liked about Eddie was his mechanical genius (Who can forget the Santa trap in the "Holy" episode?) and that he was handy with tools, often using them to rescue bits of Richie's anatomy which had been accidentally severed or glued together.
