[pressgang] Press Gang reaction: Money, Love, and Birdseed

[Vince Deehan]

Hi Katta,

I just watched your reaction video. I am slowly catching up with you.

You mentioned it was illegal to hit children in Sweden. I don't know when
it happened,
but the law has since changed in the U.K. Back in 1988, when the episode
was filmed,
the law had probably not yet been implemented and it was allowed  (I
believe) for parents to smack
their children as punishment. Thumping them, as Bobby fears his Dad will
do, was
probably not allowed even then.

While watching your video, I noticed today that Lynda's Mum says about the
boy
I fancy, sitting downstairs in their house. "Well I'm not sure about cute",
she says in reply to Lynda
saying "rough looking but cute." Lynda's Mum is wrong :) Lynda's
description of Spike actually fits
Bobby to a tee.

I noticed you got sidetracked and were talking over one of the best scenes
between Lynda and Spike, when
they were leading up to the door slamming moment. That was the scene I
mention in my review,
where I was really impressed by Julia and Dexter's acting. You missed some
great acting there.

I really enjoyed watching your video, as always. Thanks for making them.

I watched MONDAY, TUESDAY yesterday (!) I haven't written my review yet. I
will do that very soon.

I am toying with the idea of putting up an online poll for us all to choose
our favourite Series 1 episode,
once we both get to the end of the first series. Only one more episode left.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Vince
