message: These should be added for each episode. One of the criticisms levelled at the Goodies (perhaps not so much in jest) by John Cleese was 'kids programme !' because some shows were shown before the 9pm watershed and were consequently less adult in humour than those transmitted after the 9pm watershed.
Displaying the transmission times might make the differences easier to understand.

:The Goodies series was actually intended as an adult programme (in the same way that Monty Python’s Flying Circus was), and The Goodies episodes were originally shown, in the UK, in an adult timeslot.  However, the Goodies' slapstick comedy was also popular with children and it was for this reason that "The Goodies" episodes began being shown in times suitable for viewing by children.  As a result of this decision, some adult content of the episodes was suppressed by not being aired during the earlier transmission times of the series, to make the series more "child friendly".  There are comments about this on The Goodies page.
:With regard to John Cleese's comment, this was written by Graeme Garden and Bill Oddie, themselves, for John to say during the Goodies' episode The Goodies and the Beanstalk, so I think that the comment was intended (by the Goodies) as a jest (against themselves) — or perhaps the comment was written (and said) because the Goodies were not happy about the episodes being treated as a children's programme by television personnel.
:If, as you mention, you feel that transmission times should be given for The Goodies' episodes, could you please help with this.
:Also, could you please sign your comments on talk pages in future (as requested by Wikipedia of people who edit the talk pages).  Thanks.  Figaro 14:37, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  The merge 

message: On the "Complete BBC Collection" DVD box set, some episodes use alternative titles as opposed to what Wikipedia currently consists the "main" titles. Episodes having "The" added or removed from the title are not considered for the following list:
"Tower of London" = "Beefeaters"
"Caught in the Act" = "The Playgirl Club"
"Scotland" = "The Loch Ness Monster"
"Culture for the Masses" = "For Art's Sake"
"Come Dancing" = "Dancing"
"Women's Lib" = "Free To Live"
"Charity Bounce" = "London to Brighton"
"The Baddies" = "Double Trouble"
"Fleet Street Goodies" = "Cunning Stunts"
"Goodies and Politics" = "Politics"
Should we change the "main" titles of those episodes to these? Problem is, two of these episodes, "Tower of London" and "Come Dancing" had previously been released on DVD under those names, so should we change them too? TapLover (talk) 20:52, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
