Featured review
What did happen to that wandering Eye.
Truly is bored, and decides to return to his days at the yard, to relieve the boredom, he starts a little rumour, telling poor Billy Ingleton that something big, and dangerous is on the loose.
Billy Ingleton is back, and has the fear of claws and paws put into him. When is it not a joy to watch comedy legend Norman Wisdom, an absolute comedy legend. A nice word back to a previous episode, the man who nearly knew Pavarotti.
Auntie Wainwright as always is an absolute delight to watch, her selling skills are to be admired! I loved her. She never was one to miss a trick.
Wesley and Edie were a fun duo, two very different folk, you wonder how they first came together.
You notice that during this time there were a lot of characters, and plenty of different little threads. A shame that Julie T Wallace left, I always thought she was way too good for such a but part, her masterpiece, The Lives and Loves of a She Devil is on my must watch list.
Totally uninteresting fact, but I can remember watching this before heading out for my 21st birthday, such was my love for this show back in the day.
Good fun, I enjoyed this, 8/10.
