Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Snopes is your friend.

I've watched more kids telly now I'm older than I did before! I was lucky enough to be just old enough to understand Vic's Big Night Out - anyone remember that? - when it came around the first time.
Does anyone remember that bizarre cartoon about the Dream Crystal, and that bloody big blue dragon, and other craziness. There's a memory that's festered since I first ever saw the show, when I was about eleven years old.

Naaah you're not in the middle, just happened to be the post before I threw a wobbly. Not your fault Tim.
Anyhoo, I remember hating Big Night Out when I first saw it. I just didn't get it at first. It's a lot funnier when you're drunk Or 7 years old I guess.
I've no idea what any of the others are you're talking about.

Nor was my comment aimed at you, Herr Moderator - apologies! I'm just bewailing my fate as the easily-insulted Heartlander

I've gone from one to the other seamlessly, so that's probably why I still like it.

All from the same show, oddly. Just a ragtag cartoon lobbed about after school, but the only one that remains in my mind. Peculiar.
I think Vic Reeves Big Night Out is a classic. The two series still get an airing from time to time here. I just can't let them lie.
