Brian Blessed looks so much younger in thst clip than he did as one of the main characters in the first episode of 'The Sweeney' made over 8 years' before this.
LWT...seeing this logo always reminds me one of my favourites tv series broadcasted in my country (Czechoslovakia)- Dempsey and Makepeace 😉 with excellent dubbing in Slovak language (2nd half of the 80s)
The older BRIAN BLESSED gets, the louder BRIAN BLESSED gets. I fear that when his time comes the universe as we know it will be blasted to smithereens by an atom-shattering bellow of "GORDON'S ALIVE!"
It was then too. Weekend World and later Highway on ITV. Mind you on BBC1 at around the same time there were politics and later Songs of Praise and then sometimes Last of the Summer Wine to follow on from it. How times change too I wonder really of course?!
