I've got the first episode of Jonathan Creek on the go. Mint stuff. Although I think I've got a vague idea of how it was done.

There making a new Christmas Special for this year which could be fun, although I don't ever remember watching the later series so I don't know if it went down hill at all.

It was all good as far as I can remember, but I may have missed series without realising or something!

The last series wasn't as good but Jonathan Creek was generally excellent viewing.

I like programmes which are a bit original. Sure the concept of a crime mystery isn't new, but they made it different somehow.

Things like that beat the hell out of endless shows about lifestyle, buying properties and reality drivel without a sense of purpose other than to annoy me.

Association bobbage, I'd forgot about that classic event.

My neighbour works for Endemol, I might see if he can get tapes of it. I can find no footage online  Sad

Headlong Dive

'This event takes place on a long jump track and pit. Rather than landing feet first, contestants jump headlong; if their feet touch the sand, their effort is a no-jump. Iggy Singh (GB) broke the world record with a majestic leap of 8m75, Judges later watched the footage and Singh was noticeably over the board and his father was standing in front of the wind gauge. Liam Collins wanting to prove a point then tore down the track and posted an 8.96 shattering Singhs record. Singh has never fully recovered from this. He now weaves baskets in corfu.'

dragged it out a bit didnt they.

They tagged the murder bit on the end for no real reason. I did get the room worked out eventually after changing my mind a few times....

I've spent the last month downloading all the previous 4 series, up yo 98% now. I think the earlier series were better than the latter ones.
