'Allo 'Allo Marathon Part 6
it was Red Nose Night so i only had time to watch 2 episodes...
Desperate Doings in the Dungeon - Quite funny episode in which very real plot actually happens! It's all about bondage and transvesticism which are not exactly that high up on my list of personal fetishes.
The Camera in the Potato - Rene catching Gruber in the bath is mildly amusing but this episode is the first time that the Germans are shown to be in less that total control as the RAF start an air raid towards the end of the episode creating a change in the overall basic premise of the story.

Environmental campaigners have lost their High Court battle to block the decision to expand Stansted Airport.
The Stop Stansted Expansion (SSE) group was opposing proposals for an additional 10 million passengers a year to use the single, existing runway at the Essex airport. The SSE accused the Government of unlawfully "steamrollering these plans every step of the way".
Aussie politician proves he's still a rock star
Australian politician Peter Garrett proved he was still a rock star under the suit when he reunited with his band Midnight Oil, and some commentators on Friday said he showed more passion on stage than in Parliament. Any notion that the former activist singer, and now Australia's Environment Minister, would avoid politically charged songs was blown away as his band performed one of two warm-up gigs ahead of a weekend benefit concert for bushfire victims. In front of a sold-out crowd of 3,000, Midnight Oil kicked off with "Redneck Wonderland" and went on to perform the anti-mining "Blue Sky Mine" and anti-war and anti-establishment songs "When the Generals Talk" and "Read About It."
Texting peer freed after appeal
A peer who was jailed last month for 12 weeks for sending and receiving text messages while driving on the M1 has been released by the Court of Appeal. Lord Ahmed, 51, had been involved in a fatal crash minutes after sending the messages on Christmas Day 2007. He hit a stationary car in the outside lane of the M1, killing Martyn Gombar, 28, from Leigh, Greater Manchester. The Appeal Court suspended his sentence because of "exceptional" mitigation relating to his community work. Lord Ahmed served 16 days of his sentence. Road safety charity Brake said it was "appalled" by the decision. The peer had been jailed at Sheffield Crown Court after admitting dangerous driving.
