My bedroom is like a shrine to 80/90s TV.

From my chair I can see the following:

Two boxed MASK toys.
A boxed Ghostbusters figure.
A boxed mini A-Team van
2 Waccaday Mallets - Pinky Punky and the girl one - Plinky Plonkey(?)
A Thundercats money box
A Dangermouse sliding piece game
A Bart Simpson figurine.
The Stay-Puft marshmallow man
'Battle Cat' from He-Man.

And somehow I have a girlfriend. Amazing.

If that stops you dating this explains why I am single.

My room alone is a shine to 80s plastic fantastic crap!

Whilst looking at your Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man?

No! It was a seperate series.

Didn't he read 'George's Marvellous Medicine'?

Chorlton & The Wheelies. Jeez that was f**ked up. Fenella the Kettle Witch stills scares me today. She is studied by psychologists as the first real television sociopath.

That show almost caused an international incident, as Finella had a big nose, and a Star of David on her magic book.

They sold the show to Germany and Israel both of whom hit the roof.

Yeah, she was f**king scary! By the way, I remember hearing a story about Chorlton being banned in Israel, because Fenella's spell book had a 6-pointed star on it. Apparently Israelis thought it was anti-Semitic.

I jsut said that!

It was Israel and Germany. They just turned it into a Koran, so every one was happy.

Except the Muslims.

And once you've heard this once, you won't be able to get it out of your head for *weeks*!!!

Do you remember Rik Mayall's series where he used to sit in a bizarre chair-with-hands and tell stories?

IIRC Rik's character was called Kevin Turvey.
