Rab C whatever is name is this week.

That will make it two in a row that I won't watch.

That doesn't really interest me. It's all those heathens and savages from the other side of the wall.

I could never understand what the hell they were saying.

I can never understand broad Glaswegian.

Laughing out loud

does anybody know what Taylor is doing now?

Taylor also wrote for Bless This House and had a sitcom in the late 80s, Divided We Stand, which I recall as being rather lame.

And that was a Dolly Parton song. Not one of her bigges t 'its though.

Parton wrote and originally performed Butterflies, but I am fairly sure Ronnie Hazelhurst re-recorded it for the TV show. No idea who the singer was.

How perverse.

My problem with Rab C Nesbitt wasn't that I could never understand what they were saying, it's the fact that I could!

Rab C. Nesbitt was a bit of a one-joke character IMO.

In Comedy Connections do you think they'll mention the fact that actor who used to play one Rab's sons became a convicted kiddy-fiddler?

They may make passing reference to a criminal conviction, but I doubt they'd go into that much detail.

That's not true at all. He was caught with child pornography but was actually let off because it was found out that he was being made to store it by his sexual abusers.

Could be an idea for a new series, 'Comedy Convictions' - that bloke, then Langham, sure there must be others...

That's one crime they never seem to reconstruct on Crimewatch.

I am so sorry. Errr

He didn't get convicted though!!

Just watching this now. I've just seen David Tennant as a Transvestite barmaid/barman. I enjoyed the early series.

Just got zooo's attention!

Worryingly attractive in the, erm, part. Errr
