I think it might have been Round the Horne. Sixties probably.

Round the horn - radio comedy at its best.Did you have a friend called Jules?
I seem to remember “I’m Jules and this is my friend Sandy”.
Not sure which show that was. And of course it never occured to me that they were supposed to be homosexuals. I don’t think I was even aware that such people existed.
A pot of tea has the the British answer to all disasters, from death to serious injury, family problems and owt else you can think of.
As a Bobby I delivered many death messages before having your own phone was a thing, and made many a pot of tea for the grieving family.
Often used to think as a newly wet behind the ears kid of 19 delivering such messages to people old enough to being my grand parents and being thanked for my kindness, having just been the bearer of the worst possible news, it's a funny old world really.

Yes, Round the horn.
Those two characters were played by Kenneth Williams and Hugh Paddick.
And I’m going to thieve a lot more oxygen - as much as I can. You got any to spare?
Enjoyed this thread....I'm 71...so can just about remember the Charlie Chester thing,amongst others. One thing I do know is that us oldies don't need to thieve any oxygen at the minute......the football we're currently playing will keep us going for a long while yet!
I am a mere youth of 63 mate but as has been stated by Brainy let's hope our style of football keeps us all going for a while yet without the need for any more oxygen than necessary.
One more thing. RIP Ilya Kuryakin.
The Man from UNCLE actor David McCallum has died aged 90.

Liked the man from uncle but always thought the main two characters were a bit greasy
Before my time, but the "down in the jungle " reminded me of this

Putting his full faith in the former Sunderland manager Phil Parkinson
Shame. I'd suggest persevering until end of Season 1 at least. Got some great characters in there and good storylines
Didn’t care for the show but I felt sorry for David McCallum. Treated very shoddily by his wife and Charles Branson.
That must have been a harrowing job for someone so young.

I've watched the first series and will the 2nd, but dear me it's cheese. That could've been made about ANY team in the country.
I watched the six million dollar man today, first time since I was a kid.
