bloody brill first time in years ive been not wanting a programme to end cant wait till next week

def belive in time travel my dh says if there is time travel why hasnt someone stopped ww2 happening ,,,huh i said they changed it to us winning really hitler won he hasnt asked me since

lol yep!

im going to stick my head in the freezer!

I was 2 in 1973, I loved this last night - it was excellent. BBC is definitely improving with its slightly left of center drama. Dh thinks that they've started to do more SciFi things because of the success of the new Dr Who. I don't care, I'm just really happy to be getting excited about a British series, rather than all the american ones I'm hooked on!

I was 13 in 1973. A bit shocked by the program TBH, I mean they did do forensics in 'those days'. My sis was doing her law degree, and some study of forensics was included, so stuff like 'preserving a crime scene' would have been known, as well as scraping fingernails etc for fibres, even tho they couldn't do DNA yet.

Some of it seemed to hark back to Dixon of Dock Green, rather than the Sweeny

easy ..have listened to radio interview with the guvner bloke in it and he says that they have had people who worked in police then giving them advice,,cant really give an opinion as was only 6

I loved the layout of the office office tho. Very 'of it's time'.

Should have video'd, just to show ds the typewriters. On the way home from school the other day, he asked me what a typewriter was.

lol @ typewriters! dd aged 8 wanted one for xmas lol didnt get it ,,should have imagine her saying wheres the printer lol..i liked if anything happens to that car im gonna come round your house and jump on your toys pmsl

Easy, I found an image of your first typewriter, you could show her that.

hope they do a xmas one i wanna see cheap silver xmas trees ,,and tacky paper good old days

lg!!!! sure we had that at school lol for typewritting lessons with hand covers so you couldnt see the letters

Cheek LadySherlock !!

lol

I thought this was great too ..... a bit of comedy, "historic" detail, detective story - with a twist. My mind's going round in circles with all the "whats" and "buts" though.

AAA - your theory about the psychologist is what I've been thinking too. But also, more mundane stuff like how he functions practically in 1973 - okay, he has a job, but where's his money ? No holes in the wall then, you had to go into a bank, and preferably your own branch. How does he know where he banks ? And if he exists in 1973, which he does, having been transferred in last night's episode, there must be people in 1973 who have connections to him ..... former colleagues, friends, relatives ? Yet his real mum, as you say, would be the same age in 1973 as he is now ?

I'm getting a headache just thinking about it.

i laughed at the canteen shutting for the night

bet 2006 canteens dont shut ever in police stations

and i loved the dial phones - still miss them

I loved it, and I don't like anything on Tv ATM!

When's Spooks back on?

i cant really take to Spooks

all work and no play (ie romance) thats why dh loves it tho

i miss that one where they investigate old cases (whats it called? with Sue Johnston)

and Frost

When I joined the Police there was some attitudes like that left in some quarters!!! It's gone so much the other way now though you can't call someone from Wales 'Taff' even if that's how they've always been known and they've asked you to call them that!!

Loved the comment " whiter than a ginger tart's arse".

Catsmother

I wondered about money too. He's going to need a salary. He'll get pound notes too when he finally finds his bank. And where have his clothes come from? he changed shirts last night, so he must have some.

Won't his stuff be at his flat, the crummy one the slightly lubricious WPC took him to?

But his boss said work had arranged that, for his transfer. The WPC took him there, she had the key. So his stuff wouldn't have been moved in.

OK, I'm talking bollocks as usual. Hmmm.

but as he had had an accident, maybe his stuff had been moved before.

Can I just say though.................

suspend your thought processes a wee bit my lovelies and enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

ooh we can look back on this thread when its finished and see if any of our ideas are right

Boo hoo, this thread's so long and I MUST read it. Loved the prog. Don't post any more you naughty MNers! Let me catch up.
