And the gadgie looked at his watch and was a bit puzzled
Today's the birthday of Gary Holton (Wayne Winston Norris). Taken far too soon, was gutted when I heard he passed away.
It seems apt to come up with a few quotes in his memory, so here goes. RIP Wayne.
I would have given you a lift, but there wasn't enough room"
"Birds are like the Chinese army, once you've jumped a few, you think that's it...then a whole new battallion comes over the hill"
(Barry- I only want one)
Wayne- that's where me and you are different Barry, I want them all.
Follow that car..THE LIGHTS HAVE CHANGED! You're a friggin radish, Barry.
(Barry- this is the last time I go on the pull with you Wayne):". Well, the feeling's bloody mutual.
Get it all locked off, son.
Laugh? I nearly bought my own beer.
"DU ? That's from Dusseldorf". As you're so good with letters, how about FO?
Have to finish with Oi, oi, what's the word then?

Following a chat with my colleagues in the US about the presidential vote, I sent them the ‘that’s democracy Dennis’ clip. They had to watch it several times to understand it but have since shared it multiple times with their marras
I now have to send them an AWP clip every week.

Yes - Oz's little lad is called Thomas Bradford-Jones and he played Henry Palmer in Another Country.

It was voted ITV's best ever programme in 2015.
You should be well positioned for the next quiz @Ghandi Floss

Which quiz is that, mate?

If you look over the previous pages, @gluepot @hank williams @Kevin Arnott's right boot and @Spam Javelin have proved themselves a minefield (excuse the pun) of AWP knowledge.
We will probably have another quiz soon although it's only fair to warn you that I think @Kevin Arnott's right boot is actually Ian La Renais.

Barry devised a democratic plan based on the system used to elect the chairman of the West Bromwich & District Sunday methodist table tennis league.I still don't understand Barry's voting system
He prepared a list of colours and each person had to choose their 1st and 2nd preferences. First choices got 2 points and second choices got 1 point.
No two people had the same first choice. Yellow won as 3 people chose it as their second choice. No-one voted for yellow as their first choice.
So everybody got what nobody wanted..........and that's democracy!!
I don't know the answer, maybe Hank does. I know that the Poles predicted purple
(Nev voted pink..it reminded him of him and Brenda's honeymoon hotel's walls.
Barry voted green, as he thought it was soothing and it reminded him of his home bathroom.)
PS
Quiz Question just for @Ghandi Floss ... When does Ghandi get a special mention in Series 1??

Not sure mate. Does Oz possibly mention something about his mouth being dry and Gandhi’s flip flop?
I’ll have to give the whole thread a read through when I get the chance.
An ‘Auf Wiedersehen...’ quiz sounds mint.

I don't recall the flip flop comment but you may be right, @Kevin Arnott's right boot please help. I was thinking of the scene when Oz and the lads enter the Indian restaurant in Dusseldorf for the first time, Oz hears the sitar music playing and says "Ghandi on Guitar"!
Happy birthday today to Chistopher Fairbank aka Albert Arthur Moxey, alias Francis Ffffogarty and Brendan Mulcahey.
Moxey is 67 today. Let's hope he is enjoying retirement in Australia or wherever he ended up.
My favourite Moxey moment is when he's transfixed watching the stripper in "Marjorie doesn't live here anymore."
I also like the science where he orders 5 pints for his "growing lads"

Can't remember the name but they were playing "Don't stand so close to me" when the entered the bar. Also, think the fellas were wearing baseball outfits.

Some stuff I found about the group...
Evolving from a Manchester group called Fairfield Welles, who were winners of "New Faces" on TV in the late 70s, the line-up included Steve Moone of the Moone Brothers on drums. See also Bobby Moone, Bobby Moonshine and John Gaughan.
Fairfield Welles changed their name to Exposé and later appeared on London Weekend's Television show "Search For A Star", and were also featured in an episode of "Auf Wiedersehen, Pet".

I don't think much of them songs though.
Prefer super trooper German style
