Quote: died of English weather... Actually he died of Irish Weather - there's a big difference!

Looks to me like he died from his wife water boarding him.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Interesting to note that his youngest daughter, Ethel, was born in the year of his death, 1864.

Living in a time (and weather) of age expectancy of 30 something, you have to act quickly to leave a mark

No mathematician ever publishes anything of any worth after the age of 35. It's like a law or something!

I want your feedback.
What's the most classic TV intro?[^]
(Yes there are a few missing, it's not my fault)

I had a quick look and did notice that one of those videos was not like the others.

I believe that description is valid for all of them.

Ah.
For reasons I'm not aware of, we never had big bird over here. The rest yes, as far as I'm aware.

I suspect that you're mixing up Sesame Street with The Muppet Show. Although there are a number of characters that appear in both each of those things is not like the other! Showings of the former would definitely have included Big Bird. The latter would definitely have not.

No, just like in Germany, Sesame Street got localized, and in Sweden Big Bird got skipped for some reason. In Germany for example they added Samson[^].

Didn't know that. Sad to say the UK has not been one of the 140+ countries to broadcast the show since 2001 for which somebody deserves a thorough spanking.
|

But we did have the Muppets unscathed. Still love them. Especially Waldorf and Statler.

One of those that's missing! Really don't know how you could think there's even a contest! You still need a clue? Just remember what day it was yesterday and remember who told you that real spooks never come out on that day. Heading all the rest, probably Monk cos of that Randy Newman song, and I've got quite a soft spot for Blossom Series 2. Mayim Balik goofy dancing. What's not to love?

Could be one of those that never got broadcasted here. If you're referring to Spooks that's indeed the case as far as I know.
|
|
|
|
|
Spooks? What association (other than the name) is there with Halloween in Spooks?
It was broadcast in Sweden, on Kanal 5. It is widely acknowledged as the most influential television show of the modern age and cited as having a special following among academics. You know it. I know you do!

Sorry, I don't have that channel, since two years I actually don't have any cable channels.
