Things they could repeat on TV

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!

Not following the national curriculum!!!
 
Liked the comedy dramas of early 90s like making out and common as muck and would watch Our friends in the North. Still love to watch 80 days around the world with micheal Palin although find it terrifying how much the world has changed in 30 years

After the sad death of Tim Brooke Taylor, I’d like to see some re runs of stuff like the Goodies, Likely Lads, Til Death Us do Part, Fawlty Towers they are going to run out of new stuff the longer this goes on so get some old stuff on.

a lot of that stuff has been available or is available on some of the "Gold" channels and on line. Surprisingly some newer stuff like Bluestone42 and the Detectorists is much harder to come by

I always wonder how Chis Coghill who played Carl in the series felt about this, as in real life he's a big red.

Unless he wanted to see how cool it was being a Blue who likes New Order and old skool tunes from the Hacienda/Madchester era!!

Let's not forget Lisa Faulkner in that uniform. Still my favourite series on tv. That scene in London when they where sat on that bench was a classic piss take.
