I seem to recall they were pretty good. Although a bit pricey at the time. We had some of those Philips SL low-energy bulbs. I seem to recall they were pretty good.

The TV listings do give a cold, wet fish slap into the face to all the moaners that say British TV has gone downhill. Prime time Russell Harty and Paul Daniels...actually if you replace them with Graham Norton and beardy, channel 4 magician dude, then nothing really has changed. And C64 rocks. Love the Boots prices.

Greatly amused by the lineup on the Paul Daniels Magic Show: “From Belgium: the topsy turvy dancer Pat Bradford. From South America: the sensational perch balancing of Orlando and Celina”. I am sure that felt dated even at the time. Fascinating snapshot of Britain in my youth – a much calmer place than 2024.

I had to get rid of it last year after nearly 20 years. The Ferguson VHS they bought is still going strong. They really don't make them like they used to.
