The Goodies...

...they were rubbish, weren't they?

Dh is watching a programme on BBC2 about them now - I never liked them as a child and I am congratulating myself on my perspicacity (blimey, that's a good word after 3 glasses of wine). They are completely unfunny. Dh liked them of course. Men.

Hang on - if Taymums kids adore them, the balance swings towards the "yes's" doesn't it???

gomez · 30/12/2005 22:40

Nah, tamum that is just wrong. They are shite.

Underage children have no sway here.

Sooooo sooooorryyy moo

tamum · 30/12/2005 22:42

Actually, I don't think I would like them if I hadn't loved them as a child to be honest. Although the Mary Whitehouse gender education film still makes me laugh.....

WeWhizzzYouAMerryXmas · 30/12/2005 22:45

No we like them ! Some moments are funnier than others I agree & some look very dated - but still funny slapstick

QueSerahSerah · 30/12/2005 22:46

With you on that one Tamum... my humour tends to be a little more obscure these days

But don't let them sway you into the "no" vote!

QueSerahSerah · 30/12/2005 22:46

does victory dance, albeit probably short lived

notasheep · 30/12/2005 22:46

All my girlfriends love them too!

tamum · 30/12/2005 22:48

It's looking good- how many girlfriends do you have, would you say, notasheep? Feel free to exaggerate, we don't know you in RL after all.

QueSerahSerah · 30/12/2005 22:49

pmsl

QueSerahSerah · 30/12/2005 22:50

My DP loves them too. He has many of the videos. Sadly we no longer have a video recorder though so tonight has been a rare treat.

gomez · 30/12/2005 22:54

I have a VERY large family ! Who all hate the Goodies.
