Beautiful by all means ❣️❣️❣️ They remind us that not everything in this world can be bought or sold. There are values to be served beyond any high technology and intelligence and that is what makes us humans. The Evzones are men of merits and the most important about them is that they fulfill by their service a sacred purpose. We truly feel so proud of them!!!

I loved this show when a kid in the 70s. Very popular in Australia. In my opinion the US series Welcome Back Cotter, of which I hated, was a rip off of Please Sir. The same thing happened with Steptoe and Son, US came out with Sanford and Son. British shows were much better!

ALWAYS LOVED Duffy's accent in particular.LONDONERS.....WHERE is Duffy's accent from?. Also love that mighty 1970's BATTLEAXE joan Sanderson as Doris!. As this episode featured TV it reminded me that, for some reason never explained, the TV @ our school in Aldershot only had an indoor aerial so the teachers would spend ten solid minutes before the programme faffing around the room trying to get a decent signal!!. CAPTION: "The Next Programme (How We Used To Live/Picture Box/Merry Go Round/Seeing and Doing etc, etc)follows shortly"

@@Bulletguy07 Indeed. I was at secondary school from 1978 - 84 and many kids still left when they were 16. We had a sixth form but I would say less than a third of my school year stayed on for it and most that did were re-taking O Levels they had failed, or doing O levels because they only got CSE's. A select few did A levels with a view to going to uni.

probably the same reason as Hollywood films do it, it's problematic to hire kids because of legistlation protecting them. Later on, they made a kids' soap called Grange Hill. The cast of Grange Hill was made up of real kids, so it must have been a logistical nightmare! Plus, they maybe wanted a cast of adults, so they could tell dodgy jokes and viewers could 'fancy' them😁

@@chopchung quite often in them days adults had to play the part of younger people, it was easier to have people with more acting experience. rhe film grease was the same, in that case many were in thier late 20,s and even in thier 30,s playing the part of people still at school.

Thanks, pure coincidence with the music selection as it's always on random play.....30mph all round Heathrow so well under. They do have a very different system to the normal DOT Gatsos on public roads, I think these are actually private roads with public right of way...so you get a speed warning display first followed by the camera.
