Due to family stuff there’s been no time to properly prepare tonight’s stream. So you’re getting it raw with no nips and tucks, prepare to be splattered by Fremantle and woozily chimed by ITV.
I may not be around for the first hour or two.
Obviously, therefore, skeleton-ish schedule.
17:35 – Sheepy’s opening caption and music.
17:39 – Thames TV morning start-up music
17:44 – Only When I Laugh – S04E07 – The Reunion – This week, in the last-ever episode, the patients are discharged on the same day – somewhat reluctantly given their lengths of stay – and decide to have a reunion the same evening in a restaurant. By chance Dr Thorpe is there with Hilary, who is emphatically not his wife, and when Thorpe goes to make a phone call, Glover, seeing her alone, moves in… First broadcast on Thu 16th Dec 1982 by ITV.

00:08 – Thriller S01E10 – Alternate USA titles – When “Thriller” was exported to the USA, the Americans completely redid the opening and closing titles in a rather trippy manner, sometimes inserting their own newly-shot teasers (using actors shot from a distance or from the neck down!). Here are the ones for this episode.
