Goodies Deaths A COLLECTION OF GOODIES THEMES by Brett Allender As a follow-up to the Goodies Episode Summaries, I have now commenced what will hopefully be a lengthy series of new articles which will appear in the Clarion & Globe and on this website on a monthly or two-monthly basis. As I've already put together summaries and photo galleries for each individual episode of the show, I'd now like to take a look at particular themes and concepts that pop up during the run of The Goodies on a recurring basis and present them here with an accompanying photo gallery. Future themes to be explored include Tim's patriotic speeches and dragging up, Graeme's inventions and falling over, Bill's outfits, giant animals, the Royal family (particularly the Queen & Prince Charles) and favourite targets (like Rolf Harris, Max Bygraves and Tony Blackburn … not much!), just to name a few. I have listed around 30 different ideas below which I intend to eventually explore, but further suggestions are most welcome – please either e-mail them to <clarion@goodiesruleok.com> or add them to this article as a comment. .

Well done and very thorough! Can't wait to read the rest of the themed articles. Fun for us to read and terrific concentrated background information for the newly enlightened (so to speak).		Posted by:the end

I'm rather looking forward to the lads going loony article. Well done with the first one by the way as i'm looking forward to reading more.		Posted by:RatDog

What a great article for Goodies turn Baddie, thanks Bretta. I always felt that Tim never got as much of a chance to be a loony as the other two although as you have demonstrated he did have his moments! However for me I think the ultimate Goodie goes loonie has to be Graeme in Radio Goodies		Posted by:wackywales

Thanks for those kind words, Wackywales! I had also felt that Tim's character was generally the most serious of the three with being the posh establishment figure while Graeme had the loony scientist persona and Bill had his violent scruffpot streak. However when it came to finding major examples of Goodies turning baddie (and loony) it was a nice surprise for me to find that Tim got to flip out every bit as much as the other two.

re goodies in love; i've always thought that whoever played mildred makepeace must have been a fantastic actress imagine being able to pretend to be able to resist Graybags without the glasses- especially as such short range (swoons thinking about it)		Posted by:walrus in my soup

Regarding Nicholas Parsons as a target -- I've listened to quite a lot of Just A Minute now, and I'm ashamed to say I've grown quite charmed by him. Not because he's some sort of swoon-causing dream-come-true, though, but because he seems so...well, ditzy. His ham-handed attempts at chivalry are often so blatant that they're laughable in their clumsiness, and yet charming in a childish way. I just can't imagine that he realizes that he patronizes...in short, he seems so much like the male version of a blonde bimbo. Tim's comment of "I don't think it occurs to him that we were being rude" sums it up so well. About the actual series of articles -- well-written, enjoyable, and all-around lovely. Looking forward to the next explorations of themes!		Posted by:Notebooked
