Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Shown every year from 1967 to 1983 in the U.K.,apparently. No idea how I missed that.

I know the phrase, but never saw the programme. In the same age band as you, Badger

It was probably on the very long list of things my dad disapproved of. Pretty much anything not written in Latin or Greek, come to think of it.

Ive never seen Batfink, and I was a child from 1967 to 1983. How did I miss it?

I should remember batfink, but I only have vague memories. I couldn't have told you his catchphrase, or even have figured out who it belonged to.

I’ve never before heard of Batfink.

About This Thread

Maintained by ChrisHB
This morning I went to charge my kindle and instead found myself trying to charge my coffee mug. It was my third coffee of the day as well, clearly not strong enough!

=============

I was just drying my hair after a shower, I switched the hairdryer on and suddenly the bedroom was plunged into darkness, the hairdryer wasn't working either. Great, the electrics have just tripped out.

I find a torch, go to the fuse box but nothing has tripped - turns out I pressed the light switch instead of the hairdryer 'on' button.
