Hi to everyone
« on: July 24, 2012, 09:34:15 AM »
Hi, my name is Simon an thanks for letting me join the forum.  I'm 46 years old and I remember the series very well back in the 70's. Initially in Black & white and the re-run around 75-76.  Have to admit having a huge crush in Gillian and (Still do really ) lol.  The book by Jane Royston was just brilliant to read and one of these days, I may venture up to Harewood for a little nose around (if you can?)   Interesting seeing so many fans and great to see the popularity still there.  Very Sad there was never a follow on, but without the brilliance of Tony Essex, I think that would be very difficult.

Anyway, I shall and I am sure it will bring back many fond childhood memories for me.

Simon.

>44<  Hi Simon - a big, warm welcome from me.  There's plenty to enjoy here and I'm afraid you will have to share Dora with the other Follyfellas.   ;D  ;D
