'Love Thy Neighbour'.
My brother has a DVD of that - we were disappointed to discover that it wasn't the jaw-dropping racist classic it is claimed to be. Instead all the jokes seem to be at the expense of the 'honky'. Very disappointing - although hearing someone say 'nig-nog' repeatedly in a sitcom is rather entertaining.

"Darkie" get's trotted out quite a bit I seem to recall.

In fact they should bring back the seventies.

I definitely think the "cane" and "slipper"
should be brought back in to schools.

Like in the 70's. 'member the 70's?

Shoes?
We were too poor for shoes. We only used to get electric for 4 days a week!!!

In all seriousness I believe The Sweeney to be one of the best television programmes ever.
It was unremittingly grim and watching it really transports me back to the 70s.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Thu 11 Aug 2011, 8:35, Reply)

It hasn't aged well though.
The Professionals on the other hand.
(Set your faces to Stunned Bigly, Thu 11 Aug 2011, 8:36, Reply)

I disagree.
I was watching it the other day and thought it was great. As is the Professionals.

I'd heard she doesn't mess about.
Reasonable rates too.
(Set your faces to Stunned Bigly, Thu 11 Aug 2011, 8:46, Reply)

I heard she could suck a golf ball through a hose
and that she has a gash like a pink rugby sock.

Good film quote there Monty

She can suck the chrome off a bumper

I heard she has a flange like a bag of giblets
and that it smells like Portsmouth at low tide.

Smells like a Hampshire town? How very DARE you?

I have it on good authority that only the worst sort of cunts come from Hampshire towns.

We Hampshire types actually regard Portsmouth as part of France.

GOOD NEWS MONTY
They're making a film of The Sweeney. I know you'll like this because you're into film. And you will LOVE who they've cast in it. See if you can guess. Hint: they were looking to cast a grumpy, hard-case Cockernay.

His partner will be played by Plan B. Very brave move, making one half of the Sweeney a bender.
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 11 Aug 2011, 9:01, Reply)

Plan B?

(Set your faces to Stunned Bigly, Thu 11 Aug 2011, 9:05, Reply)

The rapper-turned-crooner
or whatever he calls himself. He's a pop star, basically. He was in Harry Brown. He looks like a complete thug which is a start. Unless he shaves, in which case he looks about 5
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 11 Aug 2011, 9:11, Reply)

I found him to be entirely believable in Harry Brown.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Thu 11 Aug 2011, 9:13, Reply)

I must admit I've not seen it
Seemed a bit too "Geriatric Carter" at first glance. As such my initial disdain at the idea of Plan B being cast in The Sweeney is purely of the "fucking pop stars thinking they can act" variety.
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 11 Aug 2011, 9:17, Reply)

I think he's better at acting than he is at music.
Mind you, Helen Keller is better than him at music.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Thu 11 Aug 2011, 9:24, Reply)

Helen Keller references should be brought back.
