But a heads up for those with ITV4 - Saturday evenings at 6 they are showing The Water Margin!

Now they just have to get Monkey back on!

Oh and the early Tomorrow People as well.

What's this, a mother's meeting for the over 30s?!  ;)

What are you two babbling on about? Please let the youth of today in on all of this.  :D

Yes I agree with scooby, let US the youth of today know what's going on   :D

I'll forgive you that last comment IF you watch it next week and see how fabby it is :)

Ang, they used to show Blake's Seven on UKGold, and there was talk of bringing it back cause of how well Dr Who was received.

Personally I'd always receive Mr Eccleston with open arms :)

behave yourself Dewi.

I bet you're a 'Last of the Summer Wine' anorak.  :D

Personally I'd always receive Mr Eccleston with open arms :)

Fantastic Cheers Heid, and Ironside can play Manic Miner on there!!!!

Wow, I found a reference to a program I had a bet on that someone said never existed, remember The Pheonix and the carpet? On the last episode they said that it would not be repeated for at least 25 years!!! This puzzled me and no one knew the program I was talking about. Unfortunately there is absolutely no info on it apart from it existed. This just made me £200 !!! Heid your a star!!

Fantastic! Nice seat for me in Jan then please<gg>

Fantastic.
Sod the Poker Manic Miner all the way.  My Sundays just a whole lot better.
Now if somebody can find me Jet Set Willy I will dump my bankroll.
Once again Blonde improves my life.

Many Thanks

Recoded By Matthew Smith in java - how close is that?

Heid,

You are my hero.

Thankyou, Thankyou, Thankyou, Thankyou and again Thankyou.
I never liked poker anyway.

Can you chuck your bankroll my way?<g>

Glad to have helped :)

Heid,

Will you accept a very large drink at the blonde tourny in Jan?

Do you know anyone who wants to buy a Commodore 64 with 200+ games no Jet Set Willy Though.  Yes I did.

Will not play JSW until finished Manic Miner though - this week is going to be great.

Now to PM Ironside about setting up a JSW board.

Again thanks Heid.

Pint of coke it is then :)

The 64 was always better than the Speccy :)

I will buy it!!! How much ya selling it for?? :D

Dik,

If you serious PM me and I will list you everything I have.
Prob only worth £30 or so but is a fantastic collection of games.

ahh the memories. I collect retro games consoles and have LOADS.. manic miner is a classic because it was faulty.  you cant get the items on the conservatory roof.. hehe you lot have got me going up the loft to get it going on my speccy  ;)

Mission Impossible was my all time fave 64 game.

And I was always trying to find a good version of Marble Madness - fantastic game that.

marble madness  wow      now own up  did you tip your joystick left and right when you were about to fall?  lol  I remember playing pole position and i was swaying all over the place as i turned the corners   duhhhh

ghostbusters on C64 was my fave.....who ya gonna call

I was always trying to find a really good version - there was a Melbourne House version that was buggy, and it wasn't good. I loved the arcade version - and I would pay money to get one of those machines in my house. A few years ago they went for about 2.5k, but I'd go for it if I had the room.

Oh that and Joust if we are being reeeally retro :)

I have an original GALAXIANS table top version. The one with the glass top to put your beer on...   now JOUST  was a game  hehehe.  There was a few games coded by a guy called Jeff Minter and they were all about Llamas.  LOL  i,ve been trying to remember the names but cant.   time for google methinks

Heid,

Have you tried Mame.dk If there is an arcade cash they will have it with emulator.

I would give you a direct link but I had to remove some years ago as the misses made me promise never to return(Google will sort you though).  Playing Gorf and Defender till 4 in the morning with no return for my time was not looked well upon in Sunny Norfolk I can tell you.
If you have not been here before sorry for ruining your life.

Yeah I have played with Mame - never managed to get the Marble Madness to work though :( had good fun with Tapper, Defender and Mr Do though <g>.

Ahh I have next week off, I might be re-indulging :)

Tim - my sister knows Jeff - he's a guy and a half - males sensory recognition/light programs for raves now I think. Revenge of the Mutant Camels was his famous one :)

Anyone remember Alex kid on Sega?

When I started reading this thread all if could think was OMG Blake's Seven, and the fit one in it - he was the sarrcy one, can't remember his name but phwoaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

And I used to love Sapphire and Steel.

Then I read the rest of the thread and I'm sat here thinking   WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

All I can remember from my younger days (and I'm 36 now) is Donkey Kong, Space Invaders and PacMan.
