Television

The titles you see here represents TV shows that I'm interested in and my collection of TV DVD's.
As a child of the 50's TV was a new, wonderful and amazing thing. You have to remember that before TV if the family wanted to see "moving pictures" it meant a trip to the local picture theatre and home entertainment was a radiogram. As you can see there are 2 strong themes running through my TV viewing and collecting; hot rods and gangsters. There's also some rare classics that I watched a kid and probably were responsible for influencing me in those formative years and TV shows that I still enjoy

Fawlty Towers

Fawlty Towers, the classic sitcom created by John Cleese and his then-wife Connie Booth (they split up between the first and second series), lasted only 12 episodes (a series in 1975 and another in 1979) but numbers itself among the most beloved series in British comedy history. The writing, the performances, the sheer manic energy of the series make every episode a classic. It doesn't get much better than this.
