I was only three in 1981 but it's burned into my brain like nothing else.

No. 1981 would have been...

1981 You and Me... We all know what that means... *Shudder*

CEX have the DVD for about £20. Not sure it's one I'd watch regularly though!

Though I think The Killer Monkey Programme would make a great title. Accountants tuning in for The Money Programme may be sorely disappointed.

Yes definitely remember...not sure though It wasn't First Born was it? Also do you remember that BBC zoo drama One By One in the 80s, something horrific seemed to happen in that from memory.

I definitely remember seeing trailers for The Mad Death as a kid. Don't know if we actually watched it (though I seemed to be allowed to watch all manner of unsuitable stuff so we may well have).

How are you seeing inside my brain like this? (Every time I hear that song...)

Best thing about the original was it led to this parody version on Muppets Tonight... youtu.be/pguhbmHKFl0?...

'A neighbouring pygmy hippo who wishes to remain anonymous says Altai was quiet and kept to himself, but unsubstantiated rumours abound in the penguin enclosure about alleged Freemasonic connections.'

You can't just A.I. generate people and give them government positions.

A man just asked me if I knew "the way to the nearest fucking Wickes." I told him to mind his Bs and Qs. No you resign.

Still not as bad as The Lady, that drama about Fergie's dresser where they had a scene supposedly set in 1981 with Yazz's The Only Way Is Up as the soundtrack...

That horrible song she did with Take That which was completely inescapable for years was enough to make me loathe her tbh...

Similarly my aunt always hated Tommy Cooper because my cousin asked him for his autograph when she saw him on a train near Eastbourne when she was 7 and he told her to piss off! Bit of a theme emerging here...

My mum always absolutely hated Lulu with a passion and I only recently found out it was because Lulu said "get out of my way, bitch" to her at a club in Luton back in the 60s...
