Hornby: A model world TV series
Re: Hornby: A model world TV series
This weeks (Monday 29th) was one of the better ones IMO.
But the trailer for next weeks episode will no doubt have Frank Hornby turning in his grave! Seems that daft guy in the loft is trying to get loads of locos to pull him along!!! Really, what exactly does that do for the hobby other than make it look extreamly immature?

They were 2 shillings (10p) when I first started making them. Came in a plastic bag with a stapled cardboard top. Prices started going up when they began putting the kits in full cardboard boxes
Most people are shocked when they find out how bad I am as an electrician
Re: Hornby: A model world TV series
That was possibly the best episode so far - probably due to the lack of ridiculous content. Well, until they showed the trailer for ‘next time’.
Loved the out of the box thinking by the Vampire designer and I was quite taken by the Playtrains products - maybe time to start brainwashing the grandkids.

Re: Hornby: A model world TV series
My first contact with an operational RAF jet was at ATC summer camp at RAF Bassingbourne, Cambs (now an army barracks). 1958 and I'm 14 years old helping refuel one of these! It was probably around this time I decided that I was going to "join up" which I did a couple of years later. Still think the vampire and venoms are a lovely looking aircraft though my subsequent service involved very much bigger ones!

Most of its fuselage was made of wood much like its stablemate the Mosquitoe.
Nurse, the screens!

I have caught up online tonight and lo and behold we had to endure JK with upside down project and the equally boring Everard Jnct with his scrapyard yawn, I think I should get in youtube I would be a sensation considering I'm boring, dull and uninteresting!
Why fill the show with such rubbish when they could use the race to beat Hattons with the Genesis coaches or Rails with the Terrier

@dtb
You are one episode behind. There was one last Monday 29th Nov, that is the one folk are referring to.
You could use UKTVPlay which is free and has the latest episode very quickly after broadcast. If there is a repeat broadcast then it appears when the repeats have finished.

Re: Hornby: A model world TV series
Yes I watch them on UKTVPlay but as I watched them early evening (Monday) it hadn't appeared, I'll catch up tomorrow now.RogerB wrote: ↑Wed Dec 01, 2021 8:39 am @dtb
