I do remember Harry in it, it's hard to believe in the later series that Tony and Gary haven't been life long friends but they only met and became flatmates when Dermot (Harry) left!

LITTLE MISS HIT!
She Australia's favourite teenager. #KylieMinogue, at 19, is proof of the startling power of Australia's top soap #Neighbours. Two years ago she was an unknown schoolgirl. Now as Charlene she's the Teen Queen on TV and pop music . . .

As discussed elsewhere on here, the Emmerdale Farm theme has lyrics. And here's Tony Hatch and Jackie Trent performing it at the studios of Border Television.

They are rammed into the tiny studio with a piano and audience so look how awkward the camera angles and lighting is.

If you could watch any late night TV programme past or present, what would it be?

I would be up for The Hit Man and Her myself.

Steve @mrstevebee.bsky.social · Jan 4

Would definitely be up for Hitman and Her and Prisoner. The Dame Edna Experience would be good!

Steve @mrstevebee.bsky.social · Jan 3

I was thinking the same!
