Day 19 - Total Miles 28.15 - Big Ben Now & Then
Headed woodward for hazels, removals moved my route. Cracked it. Beaut radio jokes & rad jazz bongs accompanied today's butterfly jinks. #TheGoodies https://www.audible.co.uk/pd/Ep-1-The-Big-Ben-Theory-Podcast/B08DDD6W68

Day 17 - Total Miles 24.67 - A Dusty Symphony
Close. Intense scarlet roses fully open in the green, hedges quietly buzzing, rumours of pests. A Grand Grand Overture. Look for the girl with the red and green spots and you're there. #TheGoodies

Because I'm a product of the media I consume, my overriding impression of the British monarchy comes from The Goodies.
The villain in the first episode is (spoilers for a 1970 TV show) Prince Charles. The final sequence involves Charles as a masked and horse mounted polo player, chasing the Goodies around the streets.
Apparently Charles is/was a fan of The Goodies. That's cool, but the monarchy is still ridiculous.

So yesterday I went on a massive #TheGoodies binge. I was picking episodes that I'd never seen or had rarely seen.
It's sort of dispiriting cause the impetus is to be completionism, regardless of quality.
However, I finished up on 'Bun Fights At The OK Tea Rooms' which is probably one of the finest half hours of comedy ever put to film.
Today I watched 14 episodes of The Goodies and 6 episodes of Space Dandy.
So, some info about #TheGoodies on #BritBox
- There are the 8 seasons made at the BBC
- There isn’t the weird 9th season
- There are 5 or so episodes are missing across those 8 seasons
- Some aren’t hard to guess why. e.g. the Rolf Harris episode
- Others I’m not sure why, like The End where their office get trapped in concrete
- I’ve got the DVD set which the ABC put out, which covers some of those missing episodes
- It has the random nudity that the ABC cut out for broadcasting to kids in the 80s
- Several of these I had not seen before, e.g. The Commonwealth Games which is only in black and white
Why would I wake up with the song fragment "the disgusting three-toed sloth” stuck in my head?! #flashback #theGoodies

@dcbuchan Tough question!
“Goodies Rule … OK?” was pretty special with an extended length and the showdown against the puppets.
“Kitten Kong” is probably the pound-for-pound funniest, cleverest episode they put out.
But my actual favourite is probably something like “Camelot” or “Lighthouse Loonies” where there is a simple premise and they do it well.
Remember when the #ABC used to play this clip as a time filler? It was usually sandwiched between #KennyEverett and #TheGoodies or #DrWho. As a #GenX I watch this and remember thinking it was just inevitable that we'd have colonies on the #Moon and #Mars, orbital hotels, etc. Seems absurd and sad that if this does ever happen now it will be only for the billionaires.

Somebody needs to revitalise the prop-heavy, absurdist sketch comedy that #TheGoodies specialised in.

Well, nothing quite lifts your day like seeing a report the original, missing version of #KittenKong may exist. ❤️
