I’m a few years older (born in 71) but my memories of watching tv during the school holidays are: 9am: old Flash Gordon serial 9.30am: old Tarzan movie 11am: Cricket

I would choose Medieval People - in fact, you’ve inspired me to add it to my wish list!

But can she do it on a wet Wednesday night in Stoke?

I’m pretty sure he’s ingested quite a lot of Winner’s Sauce over the years definithing.com/winners-sauce/

He’s also (unless in the presence of kryptonite) unable to get drunk or high and also unable to ejaculate inside a woman (or man) without killing them.

What more incentive do you need to graduate from the Legion Academy than the knowledge that you will upgrade from the gymnasium to the “super gymnasium”?

Or Corinne Stockheath

Why can’t a Frenchman eat a 2 egg omelette? Because one egg is un oeuf…

She’s the puzzle piece behind the couch that made the sky complete.

Bizarrely enough, the thing that first came to mind when I thought of John Junkin is Crosswits. A quick check on IMDB says he only appeared in 7 episodes so not sure why they stuck in my memory!

Three Lions wasn’t the official 96 song either

The one that gets me is “spitting feathers” which always used to mean being really thirsty (“my mouth is so dry I’m spitting feathers”) but now seems to exclusively mean being very angry.

I’ll use the reverse excuse if Arsenal fail to win anything next season - an injured Rice and Saka should have rested during the summer rather than participating in a doomed England WC campaign when they were clearly not fit.

We must be able to do better and find an anthem that reflects the fact that the majority of the country are no longer Christian.

Arlott was a bit before my time but I can’t believe anyone could be more pompous than Agnew

And now we have to put up with the witless “banter” of Vaughan, Tufnell, Norcross etc. TMS is unlistenable when any of them are on.

The OP did say “what the septics call a Boilermaker” - septic = septic tank = yank So I’m guessing the OP is British

He’s played 24 tests (I would not have guessed he’d played so many) and only averages 24 with the bat (with a highest score of 78) and has taken 47 wickets at 35. You might just about argue that the bowling is Stokes-like but the batting seems way off.

The Latin name for Wolverine is Gulo gulo which translates as Glutton glutton.
