Ah! Yes, I remember watching the episode where Riker is invaded by some
organism and the whole programme is basically flashbacks - we saw the bit
where Picard and Riker fire at Remmick and I thought this was very odd as
I couldn't for the life of me remember seeing this in "Conspiracy".

My husband and I will be in London for 10 days in January - perfect
weather for T.V. viewing and outings to the theatre.  We would like
to see about six theatre productions while in town and would be VERY
grateful for your recommendations.  We especially love the National
Theatre productions but don't know what will be showing during our
stay (Jan 19-29). Could you pass that information along? We live in
California and don't have access to much London theatre news.  THANK

HELP!

This may be in a FAQ somewhere, but I haven't been able to find one for
this group, so please, bear with me.  A few years ago I saw portions of
The Rise and Fall of Reginald Perrin on our local PBS station.  It was
wonderful and I've waited in vain for it to be repeated.  In the mean time
I've caught a few episodes of Rising Damp which also starred Leonard Rossiter.
What else has he done?  Does anyone know if Reggie Perrin is on video?

(Now, I'm goin' to be *real* embarrassed if I have the actor's name wrong!)

     I think that I may be "that only one"!
     I did hear that they are making a new series. I think that it will
     be transmitted next Autumn.

     I hope that I do not get any stick for admitting that I watch

 Also, is the show shown in the US at all? I understand that there may 
be an American version in the pipeline. What do you know about that?

Okay, I too will admit to having watched all 24 episodes of The House of
Eliott. It did reasonably well in the UK. The second series had a solid 10
million viewers - quite a respectable figure. It didn't have much
opposition IMHO (Inspector Wexford on ITV.)

I found the characters likeable and the programmes watchable. The costumes
were *wonderful*. The locations and sets were great.

There were things about the series that I *didn't* like (changing
scriptwriters; characters and problems here today, gone tomorrow) but I
shall make a point of watching series three next autumn - if ONLY to find
out what happens to Bea and Jack. :-)

The "twerp" was Peter Noone, better known as the lead singer for

My vote for "Worst English Accent by an American" goes to Ione Skye in
Covington Cross.  I'm sure you in the UK have not seen this show. It
started this past September  in the US and ran only a few weeks.  Her
accent?  Well picture an attempt at an English accent by a "Valley Girl"
a la Moon Unit Zappa.  Fer sure me lawd.  Uhhhhggghhhh!

These two Anglia presenters were Paul Lavers and Phil Fothergill.  They used
to have a hilarious 5 minute piss-take session before every show.  This included
impersonations of members of the cast and very wry pokes at the show.
However, when Anglia decided to ditch its own night-time service and join
with the London one, they also ditched Messrs Lavers and Fothergill.
Completely silly move...why didn't they just put them on Thames instead!

Lavers also did a documentary about the show, if I remember rightly.
Probably only screened in the Anglia region.

I checked this out last night and have discovered the reason for MY 
confusion. I only have a couple of season 1-3 tapes (I'm buying the
tapes with episodes I haven't seen first) and one of the tapes is in 
mono (obviously its a bad recording - because I can't get anything 
resembling stereo sound out of it) but a season 2 tape I have is in stereo, 
a fact I hadn't noticed before because I've only just played it on the
new stereo TV+video. 

So, sorry for giving you all bad information...I wonder if I can still
take that faulty tape back.....

That may be true, but the original poster was wrong: Rainbow is being shown
on UK Gold, which has nothing to do with Sky.  It is a satellite channel set
up by the BBC and Thames TV to show archive material and rake in some cash.

Well, thanks Neal...we havent got to that bit in the Yorkshire TV region
due to the schedulers deciding that fishing is far more important than

A full season here is usually 13 episodes, but we do have some half-season
shows.  A bit stupid if you ask me.  The rest of the season is taken up by
showing another half series, or films.  That should also answer the other
question about when in a season they are shown.
