John Challis, famously known for his role as Boycie in Only Fools and Horses, discusses meeting the Beatles in 1967.
He auditioned for a role in the Beatles upcoming film Magical Mystery Tour, and later got the role—although he had to give it up since he’d been unavailable on the filming dates.
Challis: I was pretty nervous going in, but I thought well Ive gotta go in with some confidence, y’know. So I went in and George Harrison wasn’t there, and he was my favourite Beatle. And I said rather disappointedly, I said “I thought there were four of you”, and they all looked at each other and John Lennon said, “no George is just a cardboard cutout. We sacked him years ago.”
And anyway, it went on and on and eventually Lennon said, “by the John have you got a favourite Beatles tune?”. Well I said something then that still haunts me to this day, I have to say, because I said, “actually I prefer the Rolling Stones”. Which I did, that was true, wh- when it blurts out of your mouth, y’know, before you’ve suggested to the brain, and you just wanna pick the words up and put them back in their mouth.
Interviewer: And what did they say?
Challis: Well there was a long pause […] I was waiting to be shown the door thinking stupid idiot, and eventually Lennon said, “actually I think you’re right, I prefer ‘em sometimes.”

I don’t know how intentional it was, but John Sullivan managed to slip a few references to the actors themselves into OFAH, and it’s so sweet. Like, in one episode Del mentions working at the Tower of London. In real life, David Jason had gone there to study the ravens, in preparation for playing a raven in a play. Boycie mentions how proud he is of his garden, in real life, John Challis loved gardening and even owned a gardening centre at one stage. Roger Lloyd Pack was a huge music fan and enjoyed playing the piano and singing with his friends and family. Trigger is never shown to be musical, himself, but he likes to listen to Uncle Albert play.

GUEST BOOK REVIEW: Lisa Morton
A Guest Book Review by author Lisa Morton - Halloween III: Season of the Witch - and she lets you know why you should rethink your decision to not watch it in the first place...
Halloween III: Season of the WitchBy: Lisa Morton Let’s get one big thing out of the way first: Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982) is possibly the worst sequel ever made. I don’t mean that in the sense that this is the worst movie ever made that followed another movie, but rather that this is not even remotely a sequel to Halloween (1978) or Halloween II (1981). This movie has no slasher…

John Stott provides crucial application:
“True, we are also told to withstand the devil, so that he may flee from us. But we are to recognize sin as something dangerous to the soul. We are not to come to terms with it, or even negotiate with it. We are not to linger in its presence like Lot in Sodom. On the contrary we are to get as far away from it as possible as quickly as possible. Like Joseph, when Potiphar’s wife attempted to seduce him, we are to take to our heels and run.”
This kind of fleeing is not a mark of weakness, but of strength, not of spiritual infancy but maturity. The mature Christian knows when to turn tail and run.
~ Tim Challies

1980s Horror Film Character Names
I totally forgot I’d started making this last year! I think I never posted it because I wanted to find more names, but there’s already a decent amount and I don’t feel like being that tedious about names right now lol.
It’s first & last names (separated for mix & match potential) of characters from iconic late 1970s & 1980s horror movies. I think I started looking for cheesier B-movies to pull from, but yeah it’s been a whole year so I forget.

How many series were produced of the British sitcom 'Only Fools and Horses'?
Tumblr media
'Only Fools and Horses' is a British sitcom set in Peckham, South London that aired between 1981 to 1991 for a total of seven series. The show follows two brothers, Rodney and Derek "Del Boy" Trotter, who try to make money with dodgy deals. They sell their ill-gotten goods on the streets of London, often saying "This time next year, we'll be millionaires". Meanwhile, they live with their Granddad, and later their Uncle Albert, in a council flat, where the elderly men try to convince the brothers that their latest money-making scheme will not work. The title of the show comes from the 19th-century American vaudeville saying, "only fools and horses work for a living".
The series stars David Jason as Del Boy and Nicholas Lyndhurst as Rodney, who have both since starred in other sitcoms during their acting careers. Also in the cast are a number of well-loved British comedy actors, including Roger Lloyd Pack, John Challis, Lennard Pearce, and Tessa Peake-Jones.
'Only Fools and Horses' won 21 awards, including six British Academy Film Awards, seven British Comedy Awards, and three National Television Awards. It was created by John Sullivan (1946-2011), who also wrote 'Citizen Smith' (1977-1980) and sketches for 'The Two Ronnies' (1977-1982). After the success of 'Only Fools and Horses', Sullivan wrote the spin-off 'The Green Green Grass' (2005-2009) and the prequel 'Rock & Chips' (2010-2011).

One of my favourite OFAH things, is when Boycie says something tasteless, and Trigger gives him such a fucking look.
