Open All Hours Question Page 2
I have all series of Open All Hours but did Arkwright ever marry the nurse ?
No, he never did.
neither of them got laid, AFAIK - except in one early episode, where Granville was afraid it could be his baby.
Tragic, really. How they wanted it... oooh!
Another OAH question:
Explain to me - how it can be open all hours, if it was open during daytime (until 9 PM)? And not around the clock, as the name would suggest?
PS. bought the DVD some time ago, and currently re-watching it.
Arkwright: - It all started when B-beh-b-b-beh-beh-b-b...
Granville: - It's no use, you know I can't understand the Morse code.
I tried to hit Pause, but it took me several seconds.
It's a colloquialism really. Just means open a lot, not literally 24/7.
And for what it's worth, I always assumed it was more 6am ish until 11pm, something like that.
although, in those days, those were all the hours it could open so it was literally open all the hours that they could open.
I almost said that, but I are too young to knows about thems days.
