[QUOTE="Angela Channing, post: 369865, member: 33"] I only remember ever watching one episode of [I]Sykes [/I] because I think it was broadcasted at 9pm on Fridays which was after my bedtime (I was very young at the time). I remember when I was in infant school, some of my classmates saying on the previous night they were filming for an episode on Horsenden Hill in North West London, not far from where I was brought up. When that particular episode was screened the show had moved to a midweek slot ( I think Tuesday at 7pm) so I was able to watch it. I sat through it all, only moderately amused by it all (like you said, it's not a belly laugh type of sitcom) and the scene I was waiting for was literally only a minute at the end of the episode and only the final few seconds were recognisable at being Horsenden Hill. When you get to it on your watch, it's the one that ends with a shot of Hattie walking on the hill and her coat has handprints on the back indicating that she was in an embrace with a man while while she was there. For many years I thought Richard Wattis was a serial killer so I never warmed to him until I realised my mistake. It all stemmed from a visit to Madame Tussaud's when after seeing the waxwork of John Christie, I was convinced it was Richard Wattis (I think I was around 8 at the time). This is a picture of the waxwork so you can see why a young child could make the mistake.
