So the clock was on the trail for a reason!

The series has quite been quite enjoyable so far, but then I didn't expect anything less; good stuff.


I liked the way David Dimbleby nagged Alex through the telly! No appearance from Zippy, I was most disappointed Wink


yeah - how did they get David Dimbleby looking like a genuine 1980s version of himself saying something as particular as "come on mummy" or whatever it was? Was that a genuine clip of him from 20 years ago?

Yeah I noticed that, perhaps they should have covered that bit up on the TV Laughing

A better episode this week the show has set in and seems as if a nice "mission" has been set up for Alex

Yeah I was wondering that too-- wig sounds plausible. I had wondered if they had taken a genuine clip from back in the day, then got Dimbers do dub it. I think he said: "You'll behave yourself won't you!" or something like that Laughing

It was a genuine Panorama clip dubbed - if you watched closely the words and lips weren't in sync. Errr...not that I checked!

They could've got Kevin Connelly in from 'Dead Ringers' to dub the clip!
(He does both Dimbers on the show!)

Or got David Dimbleby to do it himself?

I checked the credits and it doesn't mention who did his voice. It did raise further questions though.

Who is Sandrine Gourrow and when did Lady Diana Spencer appear in the show other than archive footage?

Not sure, but it looks like Nicky Lilley plays Diana quite a bit - http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1433087/

Didn't Sandrine Gourrow perform with Steve Strange or did I make that up?

Haven't seen the preview clip for the next episode. My favourite line from last week was "I'll let you stamp my bum".

Slightly unfortunate timing for this weeks episode with the theme being prostitutes.
