Things they could repeat on TV

ALF.

I worked for a confectionery wholesaler and as part of a promotional display for ALF cards and bubblegum we had a blow up ALF to use in the display
This was of course when us City fans were in the middle of our inflatable craze (1988 to be exact) so I sort of borrowed ALF and took him to his first match at Leeds
He went to Maine Road for a game and then two lads I worked with took him to Portsmouth and he came back popped
I was very proud when his image made it onto the front cover of King of the Kippax

Fucking love that theme tune.

When I got my 1st (and happiest) teaching job in Ancoats some 15/16 yrs ago, I thought I'd pass on my love of The Flashing Blade. I bought the DVDs of the full series not knowing what the reaction would be. Half the class sat transfixed by the "other worldliness" that had so utterly fascinated me as a kid whilst the other half wondered what the fucking hell I was asking/forcing them to watch! I look back and think of some of the shows/films we watched, discussed and wrote about: Kes, Walkabout, Robinson Crusoe. Man, I loved those lessons. We watched Walkabout and then wrote to a school in Australia and got loads of replies asking whether Australia was like Ancoats!
