Get some In
« on: May 20, 2020, 08:04:32 PM »
Thanks Raven, I watched that 1975 series & was absolutely mesmerized by how funny it was.
It was supposed to be set in the year 1955, what a different time that was? no Moslems, Indians, Mosques in abundance at that time. What happened to & why did it become the UK it is today??? 
This series must surely bring back memories to many men on Pensioners who did their 2 year conscription way back when.
Thanks once again to Raven for sharing that with us.Audrine

This BBC series was so great. All the actors were so good,especially Tony Selby,
I don't think I have ever seen him before. Brilliant actor.

I was hoping some of the men would tell us of their experiences in their two year call up days. Cheers Audrine

Two o’clock in the morning, winter time, panic stricken voice over the RT ‘my pupil has just ejected!’. Nobody even found out the reason, but a German student pilot in a USAF T-33 suddenly ejected through the canopy over the Wash.  He was never found.

Thank you for the days, the days you gave me.
