David Smith @davadski.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Ah, the lesser-spotted Gill Sans (?) masthead that only lasted about a year and a bit... Always preferred it to its considerably-longer-lived successor 🤔 🤷 010
David Smith @davadski.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Funnily enough I remember that cover illustration, and either my mum or grandmother being rather bemused at first glance as to who the two blokes were supposed to be... Hope the artist isn't reading this, I mean no offence 🤭 010
David Smith @davadski.bsky.social · 13/06/2026Haven't seen a lot of ITV's World Cup coverage yet, but I do hope Peter Purves is popping up and going "Let me enlighten you..." for National Power in every ad break, like he did in Italia '90 ⚽ Remember that one @looksunfamiliar.bsky.social? As parodied by #TheMaryWhitehouseExperience on Radio 1 🤪 000
David Smith @davadski.bsky.social · 12/06/2026Frankly I'm missing Peter Purves popping up and going "Let me enlighten you..." for National Electric or whatever in every ITV break in Italia '90, as memorably parodied by #TheMaryWhitehouseExperience on their Radio 1 show... Remember that one @looksunfamiliar.bsky.social @outonbluesix.bsky.social? 000

Typing Coronation Street 1960 into Shutterstock, they have telesnaps via ITV of what is called Episode 1 of Coronation Street which looks to be the first dry run/pilot episode. This is incredible to see! 411247
David Smith @davadski.bsky.social · 08/01/2026Hi @skillagesteve.bsky.social and HNY! You might know this: Which recent-ish radio show - last 10-12 years - had "phone-ins" from a comic impersonating Boy George? Not Phil Cornwell on R1, sure it was Steve Wright in R2 days but maybe someone else entirely! #Mandelaeffect (Maybe one for Creamguide) 000
David Smith @davadski.bsky.social · 02/01/2026@skillagesteve.bsky.social HNY Mr Creamguide, that's a fantastic stat about Gladiators being one of the few shows to have aired on Christmas Day on both "sides" - you've got me racking my brains now! 🤔😆🍾🎉 020
David Smith @davadski.bsky.social · 11/12/2025@jackkibble-white.bsky.social This is still brilliant - were you involved? 😊 t.co/1iuidy1RU4 I miss TV Cream...t.cohttps://youtu.be/8cQPxfb8evM?si=n9wu7ndnghL3_zLT 000
David Smith @davadski.bsky.social · 23/09/2025Not to be confused with Nick Wilton, who later managed the market in Albert Square 😉 000
David Smith @davadski.bsky.social · 14/09/2025@skillagesteve.bsky.social Hi Creamguide 👋 Trying to send an email but it's bounced back - is there a problem with the server? 🤔 000
David Smith @davadski.bsky.social · 31/08/2025Happy heavenly birthday TV Cream 😥 @skillagesteve.bsky.social @jackkibble-white.bsky.social 071
David Smith @davadski.bsky.social · 31/08/2025Possibly Pope Paul VI. We were at a holiday cottage, so thereafter we'd say that "the Pope died at Holly Cottage"; similarly "John Lennon died on the dining room floor" two years later (by way of reading it in the paper on said floor) 030

David Smith @davadski.bsky.social · 09/08/2025When it was just a combination of the two with neither fully revealed, I thought it was Vladimir Putin 😯 010
David Smith @davadski.bsky.social · 09/08/2025@sallyannmatthews.bsky.social Lovely to see you in t'Kabin last night 😀 Shame you won't be there much longer 😭 010
