Starsky and Hutch 9.25pm BBC1 Saturday night was magic
Bits of our childhood’s are disappearing fast ….
R.I.PMy mother and older sister were great knitters. I remember annoying them for ages to knit me a starsky cardigan when I was a boy. They eventually agreed but it was nothing like the real article.

Aye, no half, at the time.
Loved Starsky & Hutch and even quite liked a couple of his singles, but that's something I wouldn't admit to in public.
Just for you…..

I would easily offer the olive branch to shull but he's too full of bitterness to accept so it goes on, tragic when were were very friendly for umpteen years.
That’s a pity, your likely lads but could have been Eric and Ernie.

reasonable question, so…
I recently posted an innocuous praise of Murder is Easy - a bbc production of an Agatha Christie story the other day - mainly to highlight how some of it had been shot in Paisley, but also to commend its quality as a mildly pleasing Agatha Christie murder tale.
And a wanker on here ignored the post, in order to whinge about how the central casting was “woke”. (IE: he dislikes seeing black people on tv.)
He ignored the incongruity of Paisley, Stirling and Tyninghame being represented as the Home Counties. He ignored the incongruity of Christie’s big character Poirot, never being a police detective, not British and that Belgian character has been portrayed by English, Irish and other nationalities…. He ignored how all entertainments depended on suspending reality and enjoying the production’s efforts to entertain….
Just to complain that the central actor in Murder is Easy was not of a race that appealed to him. Woke shite, using my woke-free content.
My original reason for posting about that soldier’s amazing feat of perseverance, power and courage was to highlight the astounding human feat, when I realised that the wanker would likely use it as a soapbox for his hate speech.
I don’t care what stupid people think. I have no control of that, nor control of their reactions.But I can perhaps puncture his poison posts, in advance.
i doubt this helps?
Your fortunate that this is an anonymous identity forum and not subject to the laws of slander. I take it your talking about this post below? Where does it mention a dislike of black people on TV? , I have posted on this forum for years and have never experienced such vitriolic abuse from a forum member. I have never put anyone on ignore and generally understand but don’t always agree with others politics and views on topics. I would never dream of responding as you have to me. I await your apology.

While it's more than obvious you have a "thing" about the BBC it should be noted they have produced, and continue, to produce, many cracking programmes.
I do have a thing about the BBC, I pay a licence fee and expect to be entertained, not drip fed some behavioural nudge about either how terrible and cruel the British have been in the past to minority’s or how old fashioned and out dated it is to be heterosexual.

If you want honest unbiased programmes then It’s the internet based providers that lead the way, can you imagine the BBC giving this a platform now?

Yeah, watched that too, latest reworking of the story, focus this time on racial and class attitudes but still a decent watch.
Reworking of the story? They should be done under the trade descriptions act. I gave it 30 minutes and gave up. The male lead is no longer a policeman? Why is he bothering trying to find out who the murderer is then? The BBC have butchered a great book in the name of woke nonsense. They should get back to creating great drama and stop trying to rewrite British history.

He is a true “utility “ player so can play any position. He has “electric “ pace, leaving defenders “metres” behind.

Again… more selectively right wing posts.
There is no examination in your presentations of the relationship between numbers of nurses and doctors in proportion to huge increase in the number of population that requires help.
more people need more staff and resources supplied. Labour when it came in, in 1997, pumped a massive amount into NHS merely to try to fill the chasm the Tories had created THAT time by underfunding.
It’s going to need the same sort of help this time around, to… £36 billion vanished into covid aid via Tory ( non) suppliers, in the main.
The institute for fiscal studies right wing? Think you have started the Christmas sherry early this year 😅

The NHS' biggest problem is the attitude of british people, we just don't look after ourselves properly and expect the state to cover the bill. The ageing population also presents with diseases that are difficult to treat and the outcomes are less good than the same people might have experienced in their younger years, however a decent enough proportion of conditions are preventable, or avoidable, or better mitigated by diet, exercise and moderation
The NHS is also somewhat abused by people who turn up looking for hospital attention for trivial diseases.
Prevention is always better than cure. However the days of turning up with trivial ailments is well and truly over. You are triaged before you get to hospital and directed to NHS inform.
