You'd have to be off your trolley because I don't think there's a safeway you can do that Cliff? ::)

Just been catching up on this thread.

I had a Dr Fester a little while ago.

Anybody remember Farscape ? I think there was only two series of that :(.

What about Fester Bestertester from MAD Magazine? Remember him... and his prehensile feet!


I was introduced to Farscape by a chum who lodged with us for a while.... he was always making me watch some wierd TV..... Babylon 9 or some such... actually found Farscape quite funny and even watch the occasional episode voluntarily nowadays!  :-\ Heaven help me!

If we are recalling strange TV shows, does anyone else remember 'Northern Exposure' ... you must have seen it Maggi, it was always on late!  It was often very funny (I don't watch much TV but if I do I like a laugh) in a quiet way.

Northern Exposure was here too though I didn't see it. But we have a wonderful programme on at present, American, of course, called "I shouldn't be Alive" and is a series of appalling adventures (apparently all true) involving every possible ghastly situation from drowning at sea, being lost in blizzards, crocodiles (or are they alligators?) in the Amazon etc etc. The tales are so utterly horrific that they quickly become hilarious and as yet another dehydrated, pustule-covered person slithers overboard to be eaten by the circling sharks, I can't help laughing louder and louder. I avidly look forward each week to the next, rib-splitting episode.

Lesley, the dehydrated, pustule-covered person slithering overboard to be eaten by the circling sharks in episode six was my Aunt Bettie from Boston. How could you be so horrible!?

Lesley is blessed, as most of us in the antipides are, with the ability to be able to laugh at the misfortunes of others. It's simple a gift; just ask Dame Edna!
