Do you have Basil Brush in Oz?
|
oz boy
|
yeah, its quite popular.
|
Mr. Splash
|
Do you like it?
|
oz boy
|
yeah.
|
Mr. Splash
|
I've never really watched it much so I can't say
|
oz boy
|
its funny, but it gets repetitve... and predictable, however it can be extremely random at some points
|
Mr. Splash
|
Oh I get what you mean on that one
|
oz boy
|
my usage of words makes it completely understandable
|
Mr. Splash

Basil Brush is so annoying... every other sentence by him is BOOM BOOM and the canned laughter is repetitive.
|
Mr. Splash
|
Its annoying, but hey so are most kiddies shows. I mean I don't think there is anyone who can put their hands down and say Punch and Judy's not annoying.
Another one is Coronation Street. Like we have Neighbours do you have Coronation Street and Eastenders?
|
luke_manc
|
Punch and Judy's annoying for Mr. Punch's voice but he doesn't go "Oooooh, DAT'S der way to do it" every 20 seconds, he does it when needed and that's the big difference.
Basil Brush isn't an historical amusement figure, Mr Punch is
|
Mr. Splash
|
I think you need an advanced sense of humour to like Basil
|

|
Ha! Crap Australian Soap Operas are popular in England!
|
Mr. Splash
|
Sadly yes. So do you have Coronation street and all that?
|
oz boy
|
What's that? Some crap English Soap?
We have Casualty on Cable though!
|
Mr. Splash
|
That's out worst one too 
|

Coronation Street is one of England's best known, best loved and longest running soap operas.
And without looking up on google, can anyone tell me why they are called Soap Operas?
|
Guest
|
Because the actors use soap and listen to opera music? Just kidding lol. Does anyone like Eastenders now?
|
Mr. Splash
|
Soap Operas are called that because all Soaps used to be sponsored by soap brands. I don't know where the opera comes from but that's where the soap comes in.
Also I can't stand Eastenders!
|
Guest
|
Eastenders has gotten too pathetic.

|
Mr. Splash
|
Yeah I think it is but I haven't watched it properly. Do you have My Hero?
|
luke_manc
|
We're up to series two now
|
Mr. Splash
|
I don't remember ever watching that. When is it on?
|
luke_manc
|
My mistake:
Series five, Fridays, BBC ONE, 8.30pm
|
oz boy
|
I think we do. Not positive though.
|
Mr. Splash
|
So do you get theese of Sky channels or your normal TV? ^
|
luke_manc
|
BBC One isn't SKY, it's BBC
|
Mr. Splash
|
No I was asking Oz if they had our progrmas on their normal TV or Sky
|
luke_manc
|
Ahhhh sorry
