The Good Sex Guide looked awful in 1993. CARLTON were crap ton

..the great Michael Elphick ...brilliant ....

Used to love Boon. Theme tune sung by the late, Jim Diamond ❤

Why was it ‘only available in Carlisle’? I guess the delivery system was so advanced it would have blown our minds if everyone could get hold of it. I don’t remember long queues of ‘pilgrims’ making their way to Carlisle, but then my memories of that time are rather sketchy.

At least you weren't the "Shale n Vac" woman!

thank you for making the world of washing powder more interesting

Ads are always interesting; such a perfect little window into the past, saying so much about societal norms and fashions of their time in a 30 second bundle. Thanks for posting. ❤👍

Can you remember who played the schoolgirl?

Getting paid for eating. Sounds like a good gig to me.

what a great actress you are ,worthy of a bafta

That has just made my day 😂😂

this was the era when they were changing over to 'working class' ...lol.

Ha ha. I don't remember that ad.

Never seen that one. They don't make 'em like that anymore. Hope they didn't pay you peanuts, Julia 😂❤

Julia , A brilliant actress

Aww I loved Haydn Gwynne ❤

How have I forgotten this masterpiece? Where can I find the sketch with the song "Why is sex so difficult, why is sex so hard?" I would love to hear it again. Thank you for making this wonderful series available.

Julia, I did reply but it got deleted so I'll try sending you a DM via X/Twitter.

A dance with Mr. DeCourcey? Where on earth did he hide Nookie bear? 😂❤

Haha

Hi Julia, I have also been uploading episode of Who Dares Wins for the past few weeks on my channel www.youtube.com/@billbobmatthews. I read in the description though that you only have this episode from series 1. I have all the rest of series 1, and I think it's only fair that I should copies and send them to you, given that you're a star of the show! I have been uploading one episode every Sunday on the 40th anniversary of its first broadcast, and got to Ep 6 yesterday. We have a mutual connection in Rory McGrath, who I worked with for many years on They Think It's All Over (both radio and TV versions). The episodes are VHS originals which I have transferred to DVD, so very easy to copy. Please let me know by what method I can get these to you. Thanks. Bill

How very naughty

I certainly wouldn’t be meeting him and his unsheathed weapon at midnight 😂

Like a newborn vole 😂

So how did the meeting in the garden go?

Who'd have thought? Julia and Mrs Brian May auditioning for Bridgerton 😊❤

First time I’ve ever heard a bloke brag about how quick they are 😂😂😂

I liked these two. They did a lot of funny stuff back then.

Well by the looks of one of the full episodes, he got the full works later on 😂

when channel four was worth watching...

Oh. I was expecting you to appear in your bunny outfit, Julia 😢❤

Better than Anyone Can Fall In Love. Shocking shirt on Jimmy though.

Not so good when they’ve got a quarter of a million tadpoles on the way and the dad’s in jail 🤣🐸

Cracking stuff! Love the audience groan at the 'bouncer' line... 😂👍

Love Rory reading out the "Ho ho ha ha hee hee". I wonder if Twot is the father of Brant the physical cartoonist from The Day Today? They're both similarly challenged in terms of how funny their cartoons are :)

Brilliant again! You looked quite elegant on horseback, Julia ❤

Oooh, jodhpurs !!

Our local estate agents take the most awful looking house and then over use the word ‘boasts’ in the schedule when describing its features like people can’t see the photos of how it truly looks 😂 that’s worth being hunted for!

That was wonderful. Thank you Julia, I've never seen the first episode before. (Those party sketches were my mun's favorite part of the show. She loved the one at the wake.)

Being bald has its advantages, I'm weirdly proud to say :/

An interesting time capsule here. Some of it works, some of it doesn't, but there was enough here that made the ten-year-old me keep coming back for more. I've mentioned the unpredictability of studio audiences before, but it does make a nice change to hear people who only laugh when they want to, rather than feeling obliged to greet every line with a nervous giggle. There are quite a few episodes of the first series of Monty Python's Flying Circus where the audience reactions are either muted or non-existent. I used to think this was just a case of 'early episode weirdness,' but I bought that boxed set of every episode of The Goodies a couple of years ago, and the third series is notably light on audience laughter for some reason. It's not as if the scripts are poor, or the series didn't have a large and very vocal fanbase by then (a second series episode won the Silver Rose of Montreux!), so it's a bit baffling. Similarly, the first episode of Spitting Image has a laugh track and it's very distracting. Presumably the powers that be agreed, because the subsequent episodes were audience-free.

Crumbs! :D

Do keep them coming, Julia! GLORIOUS comedy loveliness!!!

It's funny how many times you seemed to end up in bed with Jimmy? Just saying 😊 Did I spot a young Angus Deaton at the dinner party also? ❤

Many thanks for this. A fascinating character, if a rather forbidding one. I noticed they didn't expand on his estrangement with his 'best male' pal Charlie Bowser. Looking forward to viewing the 2nd episode.

Julia, you did well to remember those lines, unless of course you were remembering past experiences.

that is spot on ,

I think my mum took me to that hairdresser in the 70's.

Haha. Soooo accurate 😅❤

“With an accent placed somewhere along the M62” - that did make me laugh 😂
