    I'll let you know when I've watched it, so, to echo Ammy, no teasers please. Too much going on yesterday evening to attempt viewing with any semblence of concentration.

      Do tell as and when. Two great episodes to take your mind off Things...
      "...the isle is full of noises,
      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

          So, let me get this straight - the original clue of Ali has morphed into Alf. Bit like Radnor morphing into Llangollen innit? I cannot get any further at the moment.

            That's why I arsked mercia originally, in fact: the Mantovani thing rang a distant bell.

            Apologies for not having the laser-like photographic memory capacity of the amateur brain!

            Lawks! a fit of temperament from m'learned friend Frumpole.

            They do say that lawyers are merely thwarted actors, innit

                You didn't answer Anna's question. Or did you?

                Storey. Hmm.

                  Surely not ALF, the Alien Life Form TV series?

                    Have you seen that Flay? I think the last childrens programme I've seen is Horrible Histories!
                    Cloughie, are all the elements to do with children, if so I think we may be floundering unless there are amongst us retirees who watch CBeebies!

                          I may have had a breakthrough as to this puzzle! Ali morphed into Alf, right? In the 80s? Well, it seems Alison Moyet was also called Alf (I have no idea why)

                            I confess that I did indeed watch some TV in the 1980s, so do recall this. Obviously I wasn't an ardent fan...

                                Well done, Anna. Upstairs at Eric's (Yazoo) would give us the storeys
