@ProfTonyPollard @For_Film_Fans Me and my late mum loved watching this together. And whenever any random person would happen to say, 'you know what we need to get?' we'd both shout, 'Out of this business!'

@For_Film_Fans I think Alias Smith and Jones was one of the first TV series I really fell in love with. Thanks for the reminder. "I sure wish the governor would let a few more people people in on our secret!"

@Neilsocialist If you're doing a Nazi salute and you're not Mel Brooks - you're a Nazi.

Reform MSP Thomas Kerr has insisted politicians who 'casually label their opponents' as Nazis 'cheapen the Holocaust' and 'undermine the promise of never again' in response to violence in Glasgow This is despite far-right demonstrators performing Nazi salutes at Glasgow Green

@ProfTonyPollard Hook Jaw was fantastic - unforgettable! My mum washed my trousers with the Fireball pendant in the pocket... Had to lovingly repaint the gold with some humbrol enamel (and a pretty poor job I made of it 🤣)

Then there was Action and Bullet, launched by rival publishers in Feb 1976. Bullet provided a rival to Lord Peter Flint in the form of Fireball (though I think his backstory had him as ward of PF). These were cooler than old school Warlord and the violence in Action closed it down for a while - Mary Whitehouse etc - before a tamer version was relaunched. It also had the best character of them all - Hook Jaw!

@Streettough He's definitely gaining on him - and to be fair, you can't say he's not putting the work in!

Attempting to overtake Linehan for taking a big steaming dump on any comedy legacy he may have had

@ProfTonyPollard The little black wallet was kicking around the house for years - no idea where it is now 😕. Think I still have my Fireball pendant from Bullet comic though. Good times!

Remember Warlord? Got distracted today with wee war comic project. This weekly comic first hit newsagents on 28 Sept 1974, when I was 10. It launched some iconic characters but also a bunch of secret agents. It was an act of marketing genius which went live with issue 20 on 8 Feb 1975. I ran a ring of agents which met in a furniture shop on a Saturday. Were you an agent?

Half-time show with Madonna was better than I thought to be honest..

@PaulaCoyscot It nearly inspired me to switch the telly off.

@ZoeJardiniere Hoovered every last drop of atmosphere out of the stadium that did 😬

That half time show has to be one of the shitest things I’ve ever seen in my life 😅😅😅

I would always have empathy with someone with a cancer diagnosis, particularly terminal, but part of me wants to tell these eejits they should forego all medical interventions, see how you get on with your juice diet when you get stage 4 bowel cancer.
