My recollection is that there was something distinctly wrong with “Hector’s House”, but can’t recall what. :thinking:

(Unrelated but even older… Yogi Bear ).

I see they sacked him and rapidly brought him back.

Was that as a ghost in the very slick advert they did after he died?

I watched that lengthy documentary on him. I forget now why it was, but Norman Vaughan took over at a few days notice and was out of his depth. Then Charlie Williams - even worse.

Back came Bob.

I have a friend who swears this was the best TV show ever when she was growing up

To be fair Graham, I was only about 6 or 7 when that lot went off. Things have got a bit hazy over time. It could have been worse, they could have shipped Arthur Askey in :rofl:

Whether that age or a bit older in my case, “The Prisoner” made absolutely no sense. Not even sure if they ever repeated it.

Loved the Mini Mokes, though :blush:

I recall one of the original episodes whether the Daleks and the Robo Men were coming across Westminster Bridge and a raggedy-arsed group of resistance fighters were facing up to them.

They appeared to be armed with those balls off the Christmas tree !!

The bombs didn’t work………:scream:

Truly terrifying - and not a rubber creature in sight.

I love Zygons, I mean, them and Cybermen, truly terrifying!

Blimey - I meant them, not Robo Men.

Thank you :blush:
