Sexy Milf in stockings, memories of my teenage years, and George and Zippy!

Should have been my ideal prog, It was till she got changed... 8)
Not a patch on LOM though,
Still, always nice to see any old motors on the box even better when the three stooges aren't
filling them with water/slating etc,
Hope it gets better..

I had high expectations for this and was pretty impressed!

Now they've (re)introduced the characters and set the scene, I think they'll be able to concentrate on the stories more.

Big fan of Philip Glenister 8)

In fact I believe the twin light version is in fact the same car used on an episode of Eastenders last year which was Kevin's project car which ended up rolling down into a bush. Again I could be wrong and can't find a video of it.

watch carefully about 90 secs into the vid, just after he stops at the zebra crossing and opens the roof the next shot shows a square headlighter driving towards the camera, but later when he stops and asks for directions its the same reg plate but a 4headlighter.

Yet another thread revival!

This very same Dolly 1300 also appeared in The History Boys. I was watching the film last night and I've only just done a Google search and this thread was at the top of the search results. I've run it through the DVLA search and it ran out of MoT last year and is currently on SORN. I wonder what other TV programmes or films this car has appeared in.
