:) As someone who to this day regrets Buddy's demise I share your feelings really. I'm in a band and we play the song Tribute to Buddy Holly by Mike Berry every gig.
That tip is within the boundary of Gateshead metropolitan council if that is any help, they might still be there. The clue is the yellow and red bin wagon
The best thing that could have happened to Bob would have been if there really were thieves and they kidnapped Thelma, and she was never to be seen in this show ever again!
Miss these days we didn't have a lot but looked after things, if only we had kept things, hopefully would be worth a fortune now, my gran was born in 1907,and when my mom made her move out her house, she had not alot lino on the floor with rugs
"We didn't call them singles in those days, did we." I don't know what they called them in England, but we called them 45's in The States. - I just love this English sitcom! It comes from an era I lived and loved; *The Groovin' 1970's!* (*was the concert that Bob gave donning the schoolboy cap at 4:10 a tribute to Angus Young?)
Not 45's those were 78's. They would be worth a fortune now especially the Buddy Holly ones. I would estimate the box would be worth a few thousand. To this day I mourn Buddy Holly.
@@MrMenefrego1 Yes large discs made of easily broken stuff called Shellac I think. They were singles played at 78 R.P.M. I've looked up the current value and each would be worth £50 - £60 pounds nowadays so there was thousands there if he had every Buddy Holly single and all the rest of the names he mentioned. As a collection I think it would be priceless and remembering the personality of the character they would be in mint condition. Also the comic books annuals he mentioned would be collector's items nowadays.
Rediscovering this makes me realize just how dated and wince-worthy some of this is. Yet at the same time the skill of the writing transcends this. Thelma gets on my nerves but of course that is partly her job!
Eighteenth time watching this and every other episode. Love them!
Just started binge watching whole series for the 3rd time superb 👌
Yep I do. I think it's that good. Nothing like today and never will.
Watching a tea chest that contains a WW2 Stahlhelm and an original R&R and Buddy Holly vinyl collection falling into landfill will haunt me forever
And those you cars...what a controlling cos 🙄

4:49 It's just suddenly hit me that Thelma looks like a Star Trek Vulcan! 🤣
😂🤣😅
That thelma telling bob to get rid of his memories.. no thelma lets throw you out instead
Then you’d be out of a job and who do you think gave them the deposit for the house?
You have got to keep your things from the past, reminder of better times.
No one would ever make me get rid of my teddy. He’s the same age as me......65. And I love him dearly.
I'm 80, and never had a teddy. Rupert books every Christmas, but no teddy. Ahhhhhh. 😀
I’ve still got my from the day I was born
To think that this was recorded 52 years ago. “Preserve, your memories, they’re all that’s left you” (Simon and Garfunkel).
Thank you, so very much for all the uploads. They mean the world to me

Keep the tea chest, dump Thelma!!!
Agree. She was a drag.
It's sad Thelma has passed away now.. RIP.
This show has kept me going over the last 2 years ...it makes me laugh it should be on all the time
I agree. I don't know just what it is about this show, but I love it!
@@MrMenefrego1 it's about two childhood friends that have a special kind of love for each other
@@lorrainelane6583 Indeed it is.
Anything is better than sodding the only way is Essex
Get rid of the Rupert books? The woman hasn't got a heart,

Best copper ever
He sounds so world-weary 😂
The days when saying 'knackered' got a laugh!
And you could call Germans " flabby Krauts ", without causing an international incident, and having Panzer tanks rolling down your street. 😀
A Skiffle band called Rob Ferris and The Wildcats has a ring to it !
Poor Bob

@@2011littlejohn1 What were 78s, the ones in the show?

No that was a reference to the Cub Scout movement - they were the junior version of the Boy Scouts and said silly thing like Dib Dib etc.
@@2011littlejohn1 But why say 'Dib, dib, dib', what's it mean? (and thanks for the info)
Fantastic ♥️
Magic Magic Comedy Anyone Remember 😄😄
I still Terry and Thelma should have hooked up behind Bob's back,
How do you know they didn't ? Bob was very wet, and that Thelma..... ? Hot, hot, hot.
Thelma was only acting
She was the counter balance to the two lads.
How can that house not have an attic?
It did, artistic license
"i had every Buddys Holly single ever made"! .....bad mistake
Programmes were shot live in those days and very clever too . Just enjoy this without looking for faults .
Controlling woman again I would of divorced her and kicked her out
A “controlling woman” character written by two men. You are supposed to not like her.
