Looking out of the rain splashed window, I sigh, and as the water beads trickle down, I think, FFS.

[/quote] At long last. Let's hope that this inspires a whole new series. I did try to stir them up some time back and went to the extent of writing a sequel which I posted a bit at a time on this forum - see blitzandpieces.proboards.com/thread/136/lovely-day-tomorrow I used the real 'Duckett's Passage' which was not a lane way but the Hertford Union Canal which gave Passage to boats between the Regents Canal and the Lee and Stort Navigation. It was all down to Sir George Duckett - see canalrivertrust.org.uk/enjoy-the-waterways/canal-and-river-network/hertford-union-canal The main point about this 'Passage' is that boats did mysteriously vanish! They went into the canal and never appeared at the other end. One of my favourite episodes was the one with Jack the Ripper and Gary finding Yvonne singing in the Music Hall. Love those old songs, 'The 'Ouses in between' and 'The Boy up in the Gallery'. So I just had to work the previous Ripper into my sequel - Springheel Jack who did much the same thing in that same part of London, but some30 or 40 years earlier. Do read my story which I hope you will enjoy. Cheers Malcolm

Hello people - love this series. I've just acquired an amazon fire TV stick and have started watching from the very beginning on the UKTV player app. It's as good as I remember it and already onto series 2 within a few hours.
It would be good to talk with fellow lovers of the show.

Hi Malcolm and Admin. Tbh I can't believe it was over a year that I posted. Thanks for the welcome though. I don't think another series is going to happen? It's a shame because re-watching the last series it was actually quite a good one. They obviously knew it was going to be the last and I feel that they 'let their hair down' a little. The story lines seemed to be lighter and more fun.

I'm here in the UK and started watching the box set I just got for Christmas and I forgot just how much I love this TV show. Everything about it!

Hello everyone! I’m Aidan, I live in Ireland. First came across Goodnight Sweetheart on Gold about seven years ago and watched it countless times since.
I notice it’s a bit quiet on here these days but hopefully there are still some people reading the site to see this!

Hello Aidan, Good to see someone still interested in discussing Goodnight Sweetheart. It may be quiet here now, but so much has been said about Goodnight Sweetheart in this forum in the past, it should take you quite a while to look at most posts. For me it was a lot more than the comedy of the show and flipping back and forwards between the 40's and the 90's. You see I can remember an aunt who had a village store at Hyde Heath near Amersham taking me with her and driving into the City to get fresh produce from some market or shop there, in the 1940's. Now, if only I could find another Duckett's Passage and get back at least one more time - safer this time for I have a bomb site map showing where all the bombs fell around our Avenue in Pinner, along with two on my school. (We all got two weeks off school then). The other time period I would like to get to would be during the Bronze Age when the Ancient Egytians invaded and stayed in the British Isles - mostly in Ireland but must have been in North Wales too - hence the Gold Egyptian Shoulder cape found at Mold in Flintshire, and also in Yorkshire - evidenced by the Egyptian sewn plank ships found at Ferriby in the Humber Estuary - same as those buried alongside the 12,000 to 17,000 year old Pyramids at Giza. Khufu(mistranslation name was RA F W), and other kings of the 3rd, 4th and 5th dynasties never could build Pyramids - they all fell down, or were very poor imitations, such as the Bent Pyramid. So I have been studying Irish facial features - and there is a most definite Egyptian look that has lasted some 4000 years - we see it strongly in the face of David Caves (Silent Witness) but there are many more including a good friend of ours in the 1960's who is from Dublin. Besides the dominant ydna of British males (90% in England and up to 98% in Connaught) is exactly the same - R1b1a2 - as the 18th Dynasty Kings of Egypt - the Kings David and Salim Amen as well as the ydna of the Missing Prince Twt Ms who was already dead when they declared him King Ymn Twt Ankh Hek Iwnw Shma, Re Heprew Neb - just to get rid of the hated Pharaoh Akhenaten/Moses. But back to the main discussion and to Duckett's Passage - it was really a London Canal, linking the Regent Canal to the Lee Navigation, and there were wild stories of boats disappearing in that canal in the 1800's - so probably it does happen. Cheers Malcolm

Thanks Malcolm. I never knew that about the Egyptians but it’s very interesting.
You’re right that so much has been said on the site, I’ll probably never get to the end of it. So many insights on the programme that I had never considered before. That’s the beauty of it, I suppose. Everyone perceives it in their own way.
I have started reading through your thread “it’s a lovely day tomorrow”. It will definitely take me a few sittings to get through it all but I’m enjoying it so far!
Thanks again for the welcome and hopefully there’s a bit more traffic on here in the near future when people have nothing else to do.
