'eavenly EMMA PEEL to make you

Crivvies drool and swoon.

"DOWN IN THE MEADOW WHERE THE WIND BLOWS FREE..." (FOLLYFOOT)

Copyright relevant owner

FOLLYFOOT, the TV show, had finished in September of 1973 (though the three series were repeated at regular intervals), but the Annuals (there were five of them) continued until '76, when the one for '77 was published.  I don't remember if I ever actually watched the show, other than snippets of the odd episode, but the theme tune is surely burned into the brain of everyone who heard it back in the day.  (Sing up at the back there.)

The art in the strip below is interesting, in that it's clearly trying to look like the style of MIKE NOBLE (who drew the strip in LOOK-IN), but isn't entirely consistent. I'd tenuously suggest it could be by JOHN COOPER, but I wouldn't bet my last bag of jelly babies on it.  Anyone know for sure?

Anyway, today's trip into the past is only just short of 40 years, which, if you're my age, is no distance at all.  You up for it?  We'll be back home before you know it.  So let's go!

   

Oh, go on then - give the theme a spin...

FELLOW BLOGGERS - For WHOM The BELL 'TROLLS'...

Lee Meriwether - she's got nothing to do with this post, but
she's far better looking than the previous photo I used

As some of you already know (having witnessed it yourselves on blogs we visit), I sometimes get followed over to other sites where comments are made which seek to engage me in an argument, or just indulge in insulting and untrue assertions against me.  It's also not unlikely that, in some instances, emails have been sent to some blog owners in an attempt to cast me in a bad light. 

So perhaps you're in a position to do me a favour.  If you have a blog and have ever received any comments or emails maligning me, or containing content for the purpose of influencing your opinion against me, then please let me know.  You may not be a fan of either me or my blog, but hey - do the right thing anyway, eh?  Next time, it could be you that some losers have in their sights, simply because they don't like you expressing an opinion different to theirs.

You can contact me through the comments section.  Don't worry, I won't publish your remarks unless you say it's okay to do so.  Basically, I'm looking for copies of any such emails so they can be traced back to their source with a view to punitive action being taken.

Yes,  you're right - this post has been edited, due to part of a certain matter being resolved to my satisfaction.  When a couple of comments are removed from a U. S. comicbook writer's blog, I'll be completely happy.
