Hi. I'm a new member to the forum board, but have been a member to FunTrivia for years. I love trivia and crossword puzzles. Does anybody do the crossword puzzles in that sleazy "Star" magazine?
I used to buy the magazines just for the puzzles. Really. Well, I got wise one day and subscribed to the crossword puzzle company so I wouldn't have to buy the 'tattle rag'.

I hope to meet many people here. I am a female and I live in PA.

Stay safe,
Randi

Hello Copago.
Thank you for the warm welcome.
I wish I had known about the C. Forums sooner. I've been so busy; I haven't played any trivia games in a very long time. Hopefully, that will change.
How far are you from Sydney?

I don't know how old you are, but in the U.S, in the early '80's, there was a television show made and produced in Australia called "Cell Block H", that came on everyday around 3PM. I loved that show!!
I don't know if you ever heard of it, but I actually wrote to one of the actresses. She sent me two autographed pictures of herself.

Thanks again for the welcome.

Randi

Cell Block H was called Prisoner here and really we try to distance ourselves from it ... so much so that the only channel it is shown on here is UKTV (all British shows) if they want it they can have it Oh alright alright I watched it for a while, okay, I admit it, Bea rocked, are you happy now??? *hangs head in shame*

LOL! Yes, it was called "Prisoner, Cell Block H". I thought it was good, especially the cheesy fight scenes. Bea?? Ewww. My favorite was Karen. I think that was her name. She's the one that did the "Psycho" number on her husband. She stabbed him to death while he was taking a shower.
She is the actress that I wrote to when the show was popular.
Hmmm, where you guys waiting for a group 'love' scene?? LOL

Welcome to the forums, and I see you're fitting in already. As I rarely watch television, I have no idea what "Prisoner, Cell Block H" may be, but you managed to flush out Copago... congratulations!
