Tim being all the local women in Daylight Robbery is probably one of my favourite bits of The Goodies ever. Not just for the slash and cross dressing...actually, mainly for the slash and cross dressing. But also the goat. Always think the second half of that ep is such a let down.
(That picture with the teddy bear is SO adorable.)
It's The Goodies! Only the biggest comedy hit of the 1970s! Only nine series over the course of a decade! Only audience hovering around the 12 million mark! Only top-selling books for four years running! Only five hit singles within twelve months! Pfffft, you young people...
Followed by 'And now here's John Otto Cleese, to say...'
Goodies reusing ISIRTA jokes is one of my favourite things. Though it's even better when one of the boys reuses ISIRTA jokes on the DVD commentaries :D On the (2007) commentary to 'Holiday', Tim used the 'I leica nice cup of tea in the morning' gag from 'The Colditz Story' with *exactly the same delivery as John used in the episode*. Joy ^___^
I asked for it! And I made a high-pitched squeak resembling "YES!" when I got it!
Further comments: Hot damn, but he has good legs. That Margaret Thatcher resemblance is frickin' SCARY. Adventures in Tim, mwa-ha. And bonus bonuses FTW.
*siiiiigh* Thanks. That was really nice.
P.S. I don't go for RPS at all, in any way, but I am forced to say: don't repress your fanfic urges. Resistance is useless, y/y?
Ahahaha, YAY :D I'm doing entirely too much high-pitched squeaking over the Goodies, it's nice to have company :D Current primary source of squeaking: every time they appear on a popular music programme and have entirely too much fun, much to the bemusement of the presenters, the other performers, and often the audience. This appearance springs to mind. Graeme going 'grrrr'! Tim overacting shamelessly! Bill forgetting his cue at 2:20 and having to go off into a corner to be private for a moment so he doesn't corpse too badly! Graeme grinning like a loon in the following long-shot! Oh, *boys
( ... )
A-heeeeee! OK, yeah, you're definitely propagating the high-pitched squeaking :)
I need to get hold of my Dad's Goodies DVDs now and see if there's a cast commentary because hold the phone that would be so awesome.
See, I immediately think "RPS" because I find it difficult to differentiate the Goodies personae from just about any other personae the boys have on their other programmes/in other appearances. Oh, the flirting and hilarity!
(I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue) TIM (about a teletubbies episode): I was gripped! GRAEME: And me not here.
And *angst*? How on earth could one write Goodies angst?! I seem to recall some sad little moments where Graeme gets megalomaniacal and Tim gets hurt. But it's all resolved ridiculously in the end and they make up? My knowledge is not nearly as keen as yours, but then, I wouldn't be looking for angst, I'd be all about the opportunities for inappropriateness regarding dresses, sock suspenders and Graeme invading Tim's personal space.

The cast commentaries vary quite a lot - some are pretty awesome, some are pretty painful, and it's largely dependent on whether Bill Oddie's on an up or a down swing at that point :S I seem to recall that the one for 'The Movies' was brill, the one for 'The End' was awful, which saddens me, because I love 'The End' far too much. (Mostly for the utterly gratuitous amount of snuggling. "You don't mind me calling you Graeme, do you? Because you're the only friend I've got in the whole world..." *snuggles*

I guess I try to insert quite a large crowbar between the Goodies personae and the boys themselves because I have a tendency to be rather Tim-centric, and Tim

Mainly, I'm here for Tim Brooke-Taylor and Graeme Garden being utterly adorable and Tim in frocks (see also above), but there is also a forty-foot long Dougal (from the Magic Roundabout), and punk Patrick Moore.
I keep having fanfic ideas which I am currently repressing. It's all good.
