Plan B Forum

Sean and I's conversation this evening...

Me "I think we should teach the dog to come by"

Sean "Wtf what is this one man and his dog"

Me "Come by, come by (in thick yorkshite accent accompanied by whistles and laughs) My dad was really proud his mate won it one year and always used to watch it.

Sean " Fuck, apart from shephards and the welsh who have a disturbing interest to watch who the fuck watched it?"

Me "Me dad but he was a frustrated farmer"

Which led us to.... apart from shepards out there who had a professional interest in it who the fuck else watched it to keep it going for so long??

We have since laughed and googled it and its still fuckin running...really???

I know this is bugger all interest to you lot but it did give us a few laughs here tonight.

I used to love One Man and his Dog.

Sunday afternoon and there were only THREE channels of telly back then, remember

OMG Daisy.....BBC2 240 on Sundays if i remember rightly.

So tell me why did you like it? Cos Sean and I really wanna know what draws people to it?


Yes....i remember only 3 channels....I still think you only have 4 there tho. Thats how it was when I left!!

I liked the dogs. The incomprehensible language of Phil Drabble (didn't even have to look him up). And the fact that it was either that or Harry Secomb's Highway on ITV or Songs of Praise on BBC1.

[stands, bows head, addresses audience] My name is Gob, and I was a "one man and his dog addict."[/sits to muted applause.]

Cool, I 'd watch that! I luv watching dogs enjoy thier work!
