Awww... Just have to share this pic of bill because it's the cutest thing ever...

JessPix : ' Jodes, unfortunately there aren't many pics of Bill in the new Robert Ross book, not nearly as many pics as Tim and Graeme.

Right, that's it, I'm gonna sulk. 

Er, or not.  Any Goodies pic is a good Goodies pic!

nezangel : 'Unfortunately Sosia, apart from those who were lucky enough to get to the book-signing in Edinburgh, you can't get hold of this book til it's release in early October.  Still, it's only a month away...

Kate and I were clever with this.  We knew we wouldn't be able to make the signing, but Kate popped over the book shop and pre-ordered them when we were first up in Edinburgh, then we collected them when we went up for the last night.  Both of them had been signed and Kate's had even been personalised (it was her name they were reserved under).

Sosia : 'And I think I'm going to have to get this new book.

JessPix : ' And another nice Bill pic at a 'Doctor' script meeting, also with John Cleese, Graeme, Graham Chapman and Barry Cryer:

How great would it have been to be sitting at that table with so many comedy greats!

And I think I'm going to have to get this new book.

You're welcome everyone.

I'm the same Sosia, Directory 999 is one I can't get out of my head, I find myself singing/whistling/humming it all the time. They're all such catchy songs, I love them.

Ah, how I love Cricklewood Shakedown and The Goodies theme. Wonderful stuff, thanks!

Jodes, unfortunately there aren't many pics of Bill in the new Robert Ross book, not nearly as many pics as Tim and Graeme. But, here's some scans nonetheless:





Bill in 1980:



There's some nice pre-Goodies pics with Bill in them.

This is a very nice pic of Bill:

Enjoy
Jess.

Heey, I was wondering who that girl was! 
Thanks for the songs, Jess - you tha dude!

Orright... True to form I'm having computer issues, but I've popped a little bit of stuff on Megaupload:

A very different version of the Goodies theme, very chilled and funky:

And while we're mentioning Jean Hart:

'

JessPix : 'The copy I have of Freedom Day is horrendous also, I got it from Grimbling's Music Den and it said that the female singer was Bill's wife. Fancy that.

That would be Jean Hart.  She filled in for Jo Kendall on an episode of ISIRTA.  I recently learned that she and Bill were both part of the US tour for "That Was The Week That Was" in the 1960's (Tim and Willie Rushton were in the cast as well).

JessPix : ' Fret not nez and Sosia, check your inboxes.

Thanks

- Directory 999

This is my favourite at the moment. I keep singing it at work!
