Hi TA,
No problem, no apologies necessary, you're ok
I know what you mean about the lack of good shows on TV anymore. I just thought that SW was kind of harmless. We all know that all TV is supposed to be entertaining. High values and some written-in 'drama' is supposed to hlep the ratings...I guess.
The shows we love to hate , I think that's the point of the producer to get a reaction from an audience whether it is good or bad.
I occasionally watch the Restoration show. Most of the stuff is over-restored. Sure, if an item is completely torn up there is no other choice. If an item is saveable, (like that art deco Philco they redid) they should try and preserve an original finish.
Anyhow, I'll let this thread rest a bit, I need to install a power trans right now, and the coffee is ready
Take care guys.
PS Arran, I do miss Are you Being Served, and some of the other British TV shows.
