[pressgang] Hello from the void

[Kevin Nauta]

 Yes, Travis...I'm still here.   I don't even remember how long I've been doing the quotes now, but I'd say a long time is probably a good guess.  ;-)

 Somewhat tangentially, I've just read on Twitter that it's 30 years today since series 4 started.

I'm here as well!
My eldest is just coming up to the age when I first watched PG, so I'm planning on introducing her soon. Though whether or not I ration her to one episode a week, and make her sit through five minutes of Tommy Boyd talking to a puppet dog first, remains to be seen.
I've not watched any episodes for years either. Life, eh?

I'm still here too. I've no kids and my wife isn't a fan, though, so I couldn't tell you when I last watched the DVDs, or even if I'm likely to watch them again…

Cheers,
Calum.

>> I haven't watched a Press Gang episode for at least 10+ years. Probably 12+ years to be honest.

>> In short, it's been a rather long time since I engaged with this group or thought about Press Gang very much. I never really was a very dedicated watcher of episodes, didn't buy the DVDs, and the pandemic travel restrictions have thwarted sneaking into the houses of Press Gang actors and rummaging through their sock drawers. It's all really just the effect of time drifting away and other stuff getting in the way. You know how it is - so much stuff. Always important and never really important in the grand scheme of things but it gets in the way, regardless...
>> 
>> For whatever random reason, it popped into my head that I used to read the PGML. Skimming through the emails it looks like the amount of chatter is similarly reduced by many others, and probably many have unsubscribed or drifted away the same way I did. Hello, if you're out there and still reading this. It's such a loooooooong time ago that I got on the new-fangled email thingy in the mid 1990s and found that other people also watched the show.

>> To those reading this, I hope you're healthy and safe.

>> All the best,
