I'm really looking forward to watching this.  I haven't seen them for ages, so I'd be greatly thankful for any sort of file, and I'll do my best to keep the torrent file open as long as possible so that many people can download it.  Thanks to everyone for making this possible, it's muchly appreciated.

That's the most sense you've made all thread!

[Darrell]

Cairnsi - you're turning into some sort of HTML-spouting vegetable now!

[Rats]

Come on Darrell, you'd be stamping your feet if anyone else did this in your beloved forum. Can't you both slap each others balls via pm? (sneers around snigarette)

[Darrell]

Are these episode guides any good to anyone? I jotted them down whilst copying the tapes for somebody and quickly typed them up. I've got sketch lists for all of series 1 and half of series 2, with about 6 more episodes I have and can jot down if I get the chance.

I'm sure they're very useful, but can you get back to baiting the concussion victim?  I was really enjoying that.

What was the Bob Monkhouse prank from episode six of series one?

[Darrell]

What was the Bob Monkhouse prank from episode six of series one?

It was Armando running up to Bob Monkhouse, tapping him on the shoulder and running away. It's also in the 1995 Party Bucket compilation which is available from this site.

"That took weeks to set up!"

[Manford Thirty-Sixborough]

I've just managed to find my tape with four episodes of Armistice on (inside a VCR I'd abandoned) and thanks to Darrell's episode guide, I've managed to identify three of these as episodes 2, 5 and 6 of series 2. Am I to take it that these episodes are now in the public domain, and, if not, should I get them encoded?

The other one is presumably episode 3 or 4 - there is reference to Euro '96 being over. Does this one need ripping?

I've said to TTT that I'll send him some other stuff, so if any of these episodes want doing, I could record them tomorrow and send them out on Monday, either to TTT or to someone else with the facility to share.

Alternatively, I could just send the original tape to Faceless...

[Darrell]

The other one is presumably episode 3 or 4 - there is reference to Euro '96 being over. Does this one need ripping?

It's 2.3, that.

I've got all of series 2 on video, just haven't done episode guides for it all, largely due to its naffness.
