TV Programmes you'd like brought back

Recommended Posts

Been watching my In Sickness and in Health box set. That should be brought back.

 

Deppo you'd love Marigold.

 

I like In Sickness and In Health. Mitchell's portrayal of a daft, ignorant, reactionary right-winger is the second best portrayal I've ever seen. Yours is the best though dune. Spot on.

Steptoe & Son - although not pc enough to be aired now I suppose

 

Bonanza

The Untouchables (epic stuff, the film was crap by comparison)

 

Sweeney.

 

Bonanza is regularly on one of the Sky channels in the evenings, I often spot it while scanning through.

 

My choice to come back:

 

The Herbs

Hectors House

The Clangers

Excuse me, Mr Deppo sir. But wasnt that a film rather than a TV prog. :?

 

No, it was a kid's tv prog from the eighties. It had the Kate Bush song 'Running Up That Hill' as the theme tune. There may be a film of the same name, Mr Lets B Avenue sir.

It was one of the many mid-eighties comedy cop films and starred Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines. Better than most of the others though.

Fun House with Pat Sharp.

 

Our history teacher took a couple of our kids to play Fun House.

 

Apparently, Pat Sharp was a complete c-nut to the kids whenever the cameras weren't rolling, shouting at them and generally being a bit of a prima donna.

 

Oddly, I hate him more for that than his mullet.

I like to watch old Manimal transformations, they could definitely bring that programme back. It startles me that with all the advantages of modern technology in screen production, they've never been able to recreate the realism and emotion they captured back then. This is a good one. It's in French for some reason, doesn't matter.
