Re: L.A. (2) (7.2)
Thanks for the info. I've posted the pictures below in case anyone else wants to see them. Interestingly, I looked up a full set on CeX, and the age rating on the whole series is 15, rather than the 12 shown on Season 7. On a hunch, I then searched just Season 3, and the age rating for it was 15. I...

Re: L.A. (2) (7.2)
I broke open my season 7 today and as I don’t remember this episode at all from the initial broadcast so this was completely new to me. Starting with the plus points: My DVD has the hot tub scene.... I just checked both sets of my DVDs and neither has the hot tub scene. Which leads me to two questi...

Re: The Hotel Dick (6.5)
The name of the episode will make UK readers smirk due to it's innuendo. I believe the same innuendo applies in the U.S. Or is there a special U.K. angle to it you were thinking of? For some reason I thought the biological connotations we more associated in the UK as I got the impression Stateside ...

Re: Professor Jonathan Higgins (5.13)
I took some pictures of yours truly at Whitby (where Cook the explorer was based and set sail from to discover Hawaii, Cook Islands etc..) today - if anyone could PM me an e mail address I can send them to if there’s interest in seeing them posted here. Here are the photos, I figured it was the lea...

Re: Tropical Madness (2.7)
Just a little FYI. Roy Dotrice, who played Harcourt, had a daughter named Michele who was married to the great Edward Woodward of Breaker Morant (among many other things). https://i.imgur.com/qa5qQ0p.gif As a boy who grew up in '70s England Michele Dotrice was best known to me as the wife of haples...

Re: FYI
On the season 1 DVD of Knight Rider there's a commentary track for the pilot episode with Glen Larson and Hasselhoff. Larson says "It was either you or Don. We went with you because you were cheaper" . :lol: Larson did a lot of ribbing at the Hoff who took it all in stride and with good humor. It's...

Interestingly Don Johnson was the original choice for the Michael Knight role in Knight Rider.

Re: Autumn Warrior (7.13)
I agree about Higgins. In many respects, despite his classism, he is among the most noble characters on the show. This is not the first time we have seen him involved in charitable work. Yes indeed, I thought the same thing about Fall vs. Autumn and think you're right about the Britishness of it. A...

Re: Loading photos onto the Magnum Mania site
For want of not knowing where to post a couple of relevant(I hope) pictures, one is of the entrance to Marylebone Station, London as seen in Deja Vu (episode 6.1) and the other is of me next to a statue of Captain Cook, who is the explorer of the Cook and Sandwich Islands referred to by Higgins, in ...

Re: Resolutions (2) (8.13)
I would like to be fully able to comment on this episode but the channel showing it here in the UK, ITV4, decided to finish it’s run of Magnum PI with Resolutions Part 1 – if proof were ever need of the idiocy of TV channel programmers. So annoying, so I had to come here to moan about it ! So 8 yea...

Re: Transitions (8.11)
I agree generally, although it took a while for Manetti to get the Rick character, I think. Manetti even commented that after the “Bogey Rick” character from the pilot was dropped, along with the night club, he wasn’t given much if any direction on the character. Yeah you're right there - of the ma...

Re: Transitions (8.11)
charybdis, Thank you - or should I say 'ta' - for your most enlightening post! I'm so glad an excellent actor like John Hillerman put in the hard work getting the accent right. By the way I think Hillerman would have been a hoot as yet another of Higgin's half brothers, an ocker from beyond the bla...

Re: Transitions (8.11)
charybdis, May I ask your opinion of John Hillerman's accent, does it work for you as an Englishman? Or do you sometimes hear his Texas accent come through? I always thought John did a terrific job, but hey I'm from Jersey and have enough problems speaking the mother tongue myself. Not the Isle of ...
