Wow! Envious.
it's great to see two great and erudite minds together.
just great. He was so great. Thanks for the post
I have this episode down as being shown in 1991.
I loved the entire series. The Berlin one was particularly brilliant!
They were talking about something that happened 30 years before, and now nearly another 30 years have passed. I feel old...
Not often u see cooky being so clear and focussed. Makes a nice change.
