In the early 80s, Telly Savalas did a series of promotional films in a bid to boost tourism in a number of British cities. Given that these included Birmingham, Aberdeen and Portsmouth, the result is comedy gold. Birmingham (look out for 'the view that nearly took my breath away') [video=youtube;vDu3AuQz7NI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=vDu3AuQz7NI[/video] Aberdeen ('I was captivated by everything I saw and I'll be back' - were you honestly there in the first place baldy?)

Aberdeen: the highlights include an old lady walking down a street and the police searching for a murderer with dogs
Birmingham: "The sounds of disco music was in the air so I wandered over to see what gives. It was an over-40s competition and...incredible!"
Sounds about right. Throw in some **** wearing a pair of jallatte boots and a pair of jeans in a pie shop and it would be every day for me
Not even Kojak would venture into the bigoted war torn desolation of The Central Belt. The dung funnel of Europe. Not even with Crocker. Hilarious. Central Belters best stick to Saltcoats for their holidays.
