llafgorf.bsky.social @llafgorf.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Yeah - it looks like the old place is doing OK for itself. Was there for a few years, four decades ago. Life there could be quite bizarre, at times, back then. 000

llafgorf.bsky.social @llafgorf.bsky.social · 24/08/2026But the notion that everybody was prudish in 1976 is just bizarre - and can only have been written by somebody who wasn't there. Sure, the BBC wouldn't broadcast some things, pre-watershed (9pm) - but plenty of taboos had already been broken a decade earlier. 100
llafgorf.bsky.social @llafgorf.bsky.social · 24/08/2026"Comedy Playhouse" and "Play for Today", despite coming from different departments at the Beeb, could both tackle similar issues - but with a different slant. Some of the comedies could be quite dark, and some of the plays were deliberate comedies (c.f. Abigail's Party). 100

llafgorf.bsky.social @llafgorf.bsky.social · 24/08/2026I would take issue with the notion that farting would have been radical for a British TV comedy in 1976. I was 16 when I saw the original broadcast, and there was nothing shocking about that scene. We'd had over a decade of the Benny Hill show, Frankie Howerd, and Carry On films. 100

llafgorf.bsky.social @llafgorf.bsky.social · 14/08/2026The rest of the missing votes were from the previous Conservative vote. This is an important lesson.

llafgorf.bsky.social @llafgorf.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Just re-browsed this thread. It certainly touched a nerve (and rightly so). Another crap scheme to add to the mix - the "guided bus" lane. They have them in Bradford. Can only be used by specially adapted buses. If a bus breaks down, they are all stuck. Hence worse than a bus lane. 100

llafgorf.bsky.social @llafgorf.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Running these things on the road is not good. They will get stuck in traffic jams, and car drivers also have an annoying habit of forgetting that trams can't swerve - so there are frequent collisions. Dedicated routes are important - as has been shown in other cities with trams. 010
