    As a child I could never understand why he didn’t he zip the obnoxious fluffybunnies mouth shut and rip of the tab . Also the lbgt I/furry community would have a field day with that bear if it was on tv today.

    Looks like he was just as nice off camera as he was on

    This has done the rounds on the interweb for years but funny as fuck. RIP Geoffrey. I'm 100% convinced they all ran a train on Jane after this episode.

    That's hilarious. I'm ashamed to ask if that was real or a pisstake. It was the 70s, they probably could have got away with it

    Fairly sure it was a pisstake that was never aired. Even the 70s had some form of standards haha

    My understanding was that it was filmed as a joke to play at a work get together. Certainly never went to air but found its way to the public.
    Still funny as fuck.

    I'm with @jegga on this one. Not a particular fan of her views, but she did what she did honestly and openly, and provided good quality challenges to keeping Councils and CCO honest. Good for her for standing up for her beliefs.

    @nzzp John Banks and her showed a lot of class in her final weeks . Interesting her partner managed to remain fairly anonymous all this time.
