I don’t know that I remember a single thing about the Goodies.
I do, however, know that the first time I ever saw A Mighty Boosh, my brain immediately said “Oh! You know this! It’s The Goodies mixed with Sid and Marty Kroft”
I think that counts for something
He who laughs last, laughs…best?!
Perhaps that’s because it never got repeated in the UK until decades after its first run. Someone high up in the BBC’S management absolutely hated the series, so it never got a second chance on screen, even though it sold abroad very successfully.
Those of us in Australia of a certain age, know it well, as it was in constant repeats on the ABC
The Goodies are a different beast but from the same school as Python, imo, and one that was aimed more at kids than adults. Personally, I think Tim Brooke-Taylor & Graeme Garden are better served by I’m Sorry I Haven’t A Clue.
