She's no fun, she fell right over.

Wait, didn't I say that on the other side of the album?

Technically, the guy on the left is a Grand Master of Ecky Thump... ;D

That show should be pulled, the cruelty to black puddings was terrible.

Ahhh, the Goodies.  I first discovered them in the summer of 1980, and my life hasn't been the same since.

They achieved close to cult status in Australia given how frequently they were repeated on ABC TV in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Apparently the shows got little replay in the UK, meaning the Goodies had a higher status in Oz than the UK.

I went to a live show they did on a tour of Australia about 8 years ago. Just as funny.

The thing I realise now about their humour was how edgy a lot of it was, even with the slapstick mixed in, along with how well a lot of it has aged.

ETA: I just noticed the result of the poll. Even without my vote I think the result is fairly definitive.

They ran on public television in South Carolina in the summer of '80, and that's how I got hooked.  I only saw six or eight episodes,  and despaired of ever seeing any more until a few years ago when they became available online. I jumped on them like a starving wolf on a rabbit.

Whenever I think of The Goodies, the image that comes into my mind is Kitten Kong, climbing (and knocking over) the Post Office Tower in London. Also, the Roots parody, Hoots, about a Scots ancestor of one of the team. The location was described as being on the shores of Loch Jaw, in the shadow of Ben Doon, between Glen Ford and Glen Campbell... those programmes had me in stitches!

"It's gold ore."

"Gold ore?"

"Or something else..."

Didn't vote either, but the lone nut theory strikes again.

I skipped the voting because I figured that no matter the results, the OP would use the poll for his own purposes. I too am surprised there were that many users.

ok, then explain to me why japan (i think) was the ones who sent a probe to the moon and took lunar samples and said the lunar samples they took were completely different then of what apollo took....explain that apollogists lol
Neither Hiten or SELENE took samples from the Moon, so I have no idea what you're talking about. Why don't you sort out which mission it was and get back to us.

This seemed to slip past.

I wonder where he got the info about samples from Hiten and Selene.

Same place the hoax'ers get all their information. They make it themselves.
Well, it is like this: The truth doesn't need insults. Insults are the refuge of a darkened mind, a mind that refuses to open and see. Foul language can't outcompete knowledge. And knowledge is the result of education. Education is the result of the wish to know more, not less.
