Coronation Street, episodes from late June and early July 1981

Fred Gee discovers the reason his application to be a pub landlord has been turned down - several years earlier there'd been a scandal at a pub where Eunice worked after money had been pilfered from the till, and she had been sacked as a result. Fred is not best pleased, to put it mildly.....

Elsie Tanner returns to Sedgwick's cafe to work under manageress Alma Sedgwick, but soon becomes disillusioned as Alma is constantly taking time off, leaving Elsie to cope on her own. She resigns in disgust.

Ken Barlow and Deirdre make plans for their honeymoon in Corfu, but have to decide whether to take Deirdre's 3-year-old daughter Tracy with them (yes, that Tracy Barlow!).

Wednesday Addams. It has some funny moments, but I enjoyed the movies from the 1990's more. They weren't this... violent.

Coronation Street, episodes from July 1981

Mavis Riley meets painter and decorator (and wannabee artist) Maurice Dodds, and goes out sketching with him on a couple of occasions. Before long he asks her to pose naked for him - no prizes for guessing how that turns out! Maurice was obviously a prototype for artist Victor Pendlebury, with whom Mavis had a relationship a couple of years later.

Annie Walker is fed up of having Fred Gee and Eunice living at the Rovers, and lines up a replacement for Fred. She tells the couple to leave the premises, but somehow Fred manages to keep his job, though he and Eunice do have to find alternative accommodation.

Ken Barlow and Deirdre Langton get married in Weatherfield's version of the Royal Wedding. In actual fact, it takes place only two days before that of Charles and Diana, in the last week of July.

Conan Without Borders

I started with Cuba and have watched through Italy, where he is joined by his executive producer Jordan Schlansky. Jordan travels to Italy every year, and in this Without Borders episode, he accompanies Jordan.

I was going to post a couple YouTube videos, but I think posting the YouTube search results would be better.

List Conan Without Borders in Italy

Conan cracks me up. I am so perplexed by Conan and Jordan's relationship.

Guardians Of The Galaxy Christmas Special.

In order to cheer up a depressed Starlord, Drax and Mantis kidnap Kevin Bacon as his Christmas present. Absolutely hilarious! Great Marvel movie magic.

Wednesday (2022)

Watched the 8 part series on Netflix.

I enjoyed it. It is a mystery, and even though I made various predictions that turned out to be true, I enjoyed the telling. In terms of the mystery, I only figured out like 2% of the puzzle.

Having grown up with the original series, I always have to get past that Gomez is not John Aston, Morticia is not Caroline Jones, and Lurch is not Ted Cassidy. I have to remind myself of the original cartoon. When I do that, casting was very nice. I liked the casting. Tim Burton directed the series.

And it was funny.

The Circe Complex

Episodes of 'Armchair Thriller' from 1980. A young woman's husband is jailed for murder and the theft of £400,000 worth of jewellery. She engages her ex-psychiatrist, a former convict, and even a police detective to try to recover the loot. Gets very complicated, and tends to drag on a bit, but the final episode of six is pretty compelling, as the various threads of the story are drawn together. Set in Cardiff in Wales, and stars the Welsh actress Beth Morris, also James Hazeldine, whom I initially mistook for Donald Sutherland.

Crime Scene: The Texas Killing Fields (2022)

Episodes 1 and 2 out of 3. So I don't know how it ends.

It is about a serial killer of young women. It is sad because the families have a lot of grief. :cry:

The police were horrific. The investigated did not get serious attention until a 12 year old girl disappears, and is found dead 17 days later. The other women were more or less written off because the other women did not have the "social rank of acceptability." That's not a quote. It's an air-quote.
