Really enjoyed this, but there’s a scene halfway through that made me sit up and go “bloody hell!” I’m quite surprised that @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social showed it at 435pm!

This fella in Sergeant Cork is absolutely crazy. Totally OTT, not helped by his remarkable wig and silly costume. Don’t think I’ve seen a performance quite like this. #vintagetv #classictv
