Mrs Browns Boys.

[Caran]

The bit with the crash helmet, the tray and Riders of the Range. Took me back many many years. I remember seeing a comedian doing this. banging his head with the tray as he sang and ran round the stage. Does this ring a bell with anyone. Was it Johnny Goon Tweed?

[Everhelpful]

He used to sing "Mule Train" while doing it.

[Mick-Talbot]

It was Opportunity Knocks to Mule Train

[Connemmara]

Mrs Brown's boys - I sometimes watched it. But my sister was telling me some years she was leant a tape of Brendan O'Carroll (hope I got that right) the tape was unbelievably pornographic - she ripped the tape to pieces in case the bin men got it. That's all I know guys. I guess the bearer of bad news.

[Caran]

You are right it was Mule Train.

[Caran]

Johnny Goon Tweed was a Northern comedian mainly on the club circuit but he did get a bit of tv exposure. Hilarious man.

[hc4361]

How is that bad news, Connemara?

[Caran]

I think this is the funniest show on tv at the moment, I absolutely love it.

[Connemmara]

fao hc4361 Porn is that not a bad thing - I think so. But then perhaps as my mum used to say


different doctors different patients die - can you work that out.

[mrs.chappie]

I think BO is married to one of the cast. I love it - think it's really funny.

[hc4361]

He's married to the woman who plays his daughter, Cathy.

The neighbour Winnie is his sister.

Buster is his son.

[mrs.chappie]

Wow, thanks for that, HC.

[hc4361]

Connemmara, I do not watch porn, I have no interest in it, but I couldn't care less if somebody was in a porn film.

No doubt some big 'stars' were in porn in a previous life.

[hc4361]

Oh, I forgot that Maria is his daughter.
And his son who plays Buster is married to the woman who plays Betty Brown.

[hc4361]

I can't see him ever being a porn star, headwreck, not even if he offered to work for nothing.

my uncles party piece but he had to have the tray or he wouldnt do it !
