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.

Sex life is not an indication of fanciedness. At least I sincerely hope it isn't.

I am very pleased to hear that Mrs Moo.

You all deny it, but you could be scriptwriters for the Goodies

natmeistergeneral · 30/12/2005 23:51

my big sister loved the goodies so much she wrote to the bbc for a signed photo of them! bet she'd deny it now!

Right. No more Goodie supporters. Misguided fools. I am drawing a line under this now. A very attractive and decorative line..

(dh says that isn't decorative or attractive but he is pro-Goodies and therefore obviously has no artistic or aesthetic credentials)

I love/loved the Goodies too. Am hoping the BBC will now repeat the entire series.

Blandmum · 31/12/2005 14:31

I thought they were great as well! Sorry I don't usualy disagree with you MM , but I'm with Tamum. A comedy the family can watch together.....not many of those around.

DanceOfThePeachyPlumFairy · 31/12/2005 15:00

They were great! Don't remember much except that I loved them, and of course... eckythump.

Saw that programme last night, ds1 watched it as couldn't sleep and loved it too.

Not really looking good for your side, is it Myrrhthamoo?

DoesntTurkeySoupDragon · 31/12/2005 16:05

I've got a Goodies annual, personally autographed by the 3 of them

paolosgirl · 31/12/2005 16:09

I remember watching them in my nylon nightie and dressing gown, in front of the 3 bar, trying to work out what was so funny. Surreal is more the word that comes to mind (although I didn't know that word existed when I was 7)

I think we have to remember that this was the seventies, when we also liked macrame and hessian wallpaper. They were strange times.....

tamum · 01/01/2006 19:29

This is all looking more encouraging I must say! If anyone would care to see one of ds's lego versions of the Goodies it is available here , though I would recommend just watching the opening credits unless you have a very low boredom threshold. Feel free to rate it highly though

Soupy, I am so impressed. I had to buy the Goodies annuals from eBay for ds as my parents had unaccountably lost mine.

4blue1pink · 01/01/2006 19:53

I just think all the telly over the holidat has been Cr*# 'The Goodies" was however a definite low point!

PeachyClair · 02/01/2006 18:23

tamum- showed your son's clip to ds1, phsl.
