I find that threads which extend beyond a few pages get cumbersome, so I shall take up DrSzin's challenge and start a new thread as a spin off from angela5's "Favorite Comedy".

The goal here is to tell us which comedy character you would be. It seems that could be modified to include your suggestions for the famous characters of other orgers.

So far we have:

:grin: DrSzin as John Cleese in Fawlty Towers
:grin: wickerinca as Hyacinca and/or Polly in Fawlty Towers and canuck as The Rev. Geraldine Granger
:grin: Rheghead as Manuel in Fawlty Towers
:grin: Sporran as Sybil in FT so she can push Basil around

I've never seen Fawlty Towers, but I trust your judgement on these things.

When I first encountered him I was a young man, yet now, somehow, I feel I could do a highly passable Albert Steptoe.

Maybe we should plan an orger pantomine in Wick.

Sporran

Oooh, and somebody mentioned Alf Garnett, earlier on!

I know exactly who I have in mind for for his son-in-law Mike, in Till Death Us Do Part! ;)

DrSzin, what have you gotten me into? It was quiet here last night, so I took up your suggestion to start a new thread. It seems to be a runaway train now. Other than my Geraldine and Hyacinca, I haven't got a clue who any of these other characters are. And now landmarker wants to have an orger pantomine in Wick!
I guess that we could do a North American version in Toronto when weeboyagee visits in the summer? Sporran, are you up for that?

Has all the snow of the past few days caused the orgers to be housebound? I have never seen so many posts in so short a period of time? I'm even getting multiple PMs.

Would Porshiepoo like to be Audrey Fforbes Hamilton from To the manor born?
I couldn't decide between porshiepoo and Katarina for that one.


That leads us to the next question. Who could be Baldric???Rheghead of course. If he can be Manuel to my Fawlty, then he can be Baldric to my Blackadder.
