I supose I associate the Ealing comedies with TV is that I have only ever seen them on TV - they were too old to be on at the cinemas, so they popped up from time to time on the box.

I can still recall an incident in Inheritance, when a piece of cloth was brought to the mill by an important customer complaining about its poor quality and the young man (I believe James Bolam played him) was able to tell that it was not of their production as it has the wrong number of threads in the stripe, and was actually the product of a mill further up the valley.
By eck!!

It is so annoying to be able to remember something on TV 40 years ago but can't find the new store cards that arrived a couple of weeks ago.

I believe that the BBC's tape of the moon landing 'one giant leap for mankind' was reused later - for reasons of economy.

I do wish that I had a working reel to reel tape recorder, as I have tapes of The Navy Lark and Round the Horn, and numerous other jems from the 60s. I still remember 'Fred Shadow and the 40 charted accountants' and Troutbridge's encounter with the Popadum... This is making me very nostalgic.
