Well he has a dog, the wonderful Mutley. Surely he can’t be all bad?

Mutely is my favourite

I was confused, because I was thinking of Dick Darlington.

Stop that pigeon.

I believe he is vegetarian, a war hero and a dog rescuer. On the negative side, he tried to kill pigeons, vandalise motor vehicles and cheat at competitions. On balance, he had positive traits and negative traits.

He is my sort of guy.

He was always winning when he stopped to vandalise everyone else. If he just kept driving he’d be unbeatable.

He obviously kept Mutley well fed and taught him rudimentary posture and language.

Manolin · 04/09/2020 21:52

He reminds me of the actor Peter Bowles. I used to see him in Gillingham, Dorset where he lived in the 1980's.

My teen dd is tall and lanky and sometimes does a funny dance which really reminds me of Dick Dastardly. Luckily she's never googled.

PinkSparklyPussyCat · 04/09/2020 22:05

I think he's more of a Graham Hill lookalike!

Oh man, I loved this programme! Peter Perfect!

Manolin · 04/09/2020 22:09

Wan't there two cavemen in a hollowed out rock-car that used to club people on the head, or was that Flinstones?

Manolin · 04/09/2020 22:10

Or bananasplits?

The Slag Brothers - I've got a picture of me standing between them at the Goodwood Festival of Speed a few years ago!
