  1. ICYMI there's what seems to be the French parallel of Midsomer Murders now available every Tuesday on TPTV (UK Freeview or Freesat). Different scenery every week; and mostly different investigators. Next is Murders In Martinique!
    Sadly, you've just missed Avignon and a murder in Palais des Papes.

  6. Proving that time has little actual meaning, Alexandra Bastedo was born 80 years ago today. When The Champions made its first appearance on #TPTV I wrote this piece for We Are Cult. wearecult.rocks/the-beginnin...

  7. I've just watched "The Atomic Submarine" (1959) and now I know exactly where Gerry Anderson got the idea for the U.F.O. episode "Reflections in the Water" (1971) ...and several other episodes 🛸 👽

  11. Also worth remembering that most of the Goon Shows from the mid-50s onwards exist in superb Hi-Fi, testament to the skill of the BBC’s production staff and equipment. The broadcast standard of #TPTV on Freeview is well below the quality achieved by auntie all those years ago.

  16. Catching up on the last 3 Footage Detectives from #TPTV. I’m not sure showing ‘highlights’ from the already-released (by Renown Pictures Ltd.) Forces Sweetheart is really going to grow interest in the Goons. If anything, it will put people off! Nice to see Mark Cousins interviewed, however.

  19. Calling all fellow Doctor Who nerds.
    I am watching The Salvage Gang (1958) on #TPTV and so far have spotted three #DoctorWho connections:
    (1) Frazer Hines (Kim)
    (2) Roberta Tovey's Dad, George (Alf)
    (3) In one scene, a very prominent Police Box.
    Have I missed any others?

  23. Well, that was weird - I've just seen Stuart Damon on The #WheelTappers on #TPTV - *singing* ?! (Well, sort of).
    Did William Gaunt ride a unicycle?
    Did Alexanra Bastedo play the spoons?

  27. One of the best things about watching old repeats of Wheel-Tappers on #TPTV is spotting the stupidest 1970s hair styles. 🙂

  31. This has to be the lowest budget #TV 'production' of all time.
    Dear Noel Cronin, Please stop it immediately or I may have to send Mike some 'special' biscuits.
    Thanks.

  35. Holy crap - has anyone else come across "The Heritage Chart Show" on #TPTV .
    The imagery appears to be completely #AI generated (possible even the 'music' is from an AI generated #1980s parallel nightmare universe since I've never heard of any of it.)
    Also, where's the logic in using Morris Benton's Broadway font to suggest 'the olden days' when we're only talking about the 1980s or 1990s?!
    I'm not sure it's even the real #MikeRead .

  39. "Rewind TV" is a kind of amusingly amateurish knock-off version of (the excellent) Talking Pictures TV.
    However, on the plus side it does have Drop The Dead Donkey. Hurrah!
