1128682 2010-08-17 06:33:00 I need some information. some new zealander on the goodies forums claims that the goodies was not well known before it showed on comedy central last year.

my parents remember it back in the 70's.


I Need to know some facts:

When did it first come on nz tv?

Was it Transmitted in Black & White or Colour?

Do You Remember it?

1128684 2010-08-17 06:55:00 I remember them well on TV in 1973 (I think) - black and white - and I'm sure Bill Oddie (The tubby one?) came to a NZ Telethon (1977 I think). Remember seeing him playing the drums at the telethon, and was screened on TV.

One hilarious show I recall of the Goodies was their year's supply of...Goodies, that instantly changed in the one room. Open the door - a year's food - close the door - reopen - a years supply of clothing...and so on...

The episode you are quoting is The Very First Episode! called Tower of London where somebody is trying to starve beefeaters. that episode first went to air in the uk on Novemember 7, 1970. so it looks like New Zealand got it 3 years late.

Tim Brooke-Taylor was the upperclass one with wearing the blue suit, Graeme Garden was the scientist with the black rimmed glasses and side burns, and Bill Oddie was the chubby (not on all episodes) one with the long hair and beard.

and here is that scene you quoted: www.youtube.com
