looking good! Any chance that the default "Add notes to your infographic" text could update when a past month is selected? I just created an Aug 2021 infographic that is claiming to be from Jan 2023...

I suspect my weird cycling patterns break it a bit. The most favourite distance on the right doesn't seem to match up with the left hand side. Also is it possible to grab the longest distance and just display *value* as I'm getting a blank if it's over 150km?

Can I just check what Site Rank means exactly? Is it mileage, pace, what?

That's better....
Thanks!

Looks great, nice work, but I reckon January has 31 days 😀.

Did my info graphic for biking for January 2023. But the box of text in the lower left said 'Here's a fab graphic of my running........'

bigleggy - you can enter anything you want in the text box, see mine above (but yes it does default to running).

That's better - I hadn't refreshed it the first time

Nope - it's drawing it to include todays run (28th) but when I use the copy link code it's still posting the one only up to and including the 27th...

That's just what your browser is showing you. When I look at yours it's showing the 28th.

Looks great, but I'm not sure I understand the cadence data. Looks like my average should be higher than it is saying it is.

Either way, it goes to show how quickly I have to move these short legs!

It's possible you have a bunch of lower cadence stuff that's off the left of the chart. I'll have a look.

I'm calculating the number of strides at each cadence by multiplying the cadence value e.g. 182 by the number of minutes at that cadence e.g. 30.7. Then I sum all of those values to get your total strides, divide by the total number of minutes to get your average strides per minute. I think there are enough strides at lower cadence to bring the average down below the mode of 185. I think the numbers are right, but I agree that it doesn't feel right. Perhaps because your cadences above 185 tail away dramatically, whereas about 20% of your strides are below 182.

Anyway... I've switched to displaying the mode figure now.

Makes sense - one of those rare occasions where mode feels like a reasonable average to use. Thanks for the explanation.

I've just taken a look at mine and it's showing my fastest 5k for Feb being 31.xx whereas yesterday's parkrun was a sub 30.

Possible that your browser has cached the old version. Paste the code here and I’ll tell you what I see.

fetcheveryone.com/training-summary-monthlyinfographic.php

P.S. its Sunday- stop working and go watch Countryfile or something a

No, the square brackety code. The one you get when you click Share My Infographic 😀

You didn’t get a 5k benchmark for the parkrun. To get around this, add it to your race list and put your time in.

It's already there, fetch

Sorry, me again. On the old monthly summary, it had a list of training entries showing which entries had the fastest (various) distances - is it possible to see that somewhere? [still not showing my sub-30 5km]

The ‘share a link to your graphic’ button just sends me to the home page.

The share link seems just to kick me to the homepage, I'm afraid.

My walking for this month apparently has such a wide range of cadances that the labels become unreadable, and I'd also got some edge cases with small overlaps between the HR graph and either the pie chart (when I've run too fast...) or beats/km graphic (when I've done lots of slow ambling).

But a lovely summary in principle - only complaining because you asked us to

My fault, sorry. I was confused because there were folks sharing the graphic in the previous blog. It should be working now

That worked

My gradients seem to be picking up weird scores. fetcheveryone.com/t-21422182 apparently has a 19.6% gradient in it, but the training page doesn’t show that. Is one picking up watch gradient and the other map gradient?

Yay! What issues are you seeing GH?

See he comment box

Not seeing any obvious issues with mine, but is there somewhere you could squeeze total training hours as well as the hours for the chosen mode?

In the middle heart rate zones bit, the chart looks good, but the totals on the axis underneath - can the blue and grey totals be the other way around?
Sre the coloured bands in the daily chart at the botyom based on pace or hr?

Comparing Jan 2022 with Jan 2023 my heart beats per mile is now 1000 lower than this time last year - I am beating Long Covid

Pie chart overalpping

Problematic cadance labelling.

As with other people’s, the favourite distance is awry. Looks great though!

So I know what the percentages mean, but it doesn’t say on it

December wasn't my healthiest month ever, but here it is, for running.
The copy and pasteable text above the regenerated image stayed as January 2023, but I see that the month is correct in the image.
There is a lot of overlap of labels for the top barchart. There may be such overlap elsewhere.

This is mine for December. The middle is a bit empty

Are you still alive Dio

That’s odd, I could have sworn I changed the text in the box in the image I posted above, but now it’s gone back to the default. 🤷‍♀️

I’ve changed it back

The distances are a bit wonky for cycling?

I got this!

Looking very fetching

Did you mean to choose a month that hasn’t happened yet?

There is some green numbers way out to the left by E & T in the Fetcheveryone word.

Running long involving walking makes the cadence graph pretty indecipherable (what is the red bar?)
Favourite distance always seems to be the longest *some truth in that but I'm sure not what you intended)
I've got some odd looking benchmarks with 0% WAVA

Really like the box for putting notes in and the data generated for me all looks accurate. Thank you...

Are people really that interested in cadence?

Also: I used to like to see where (as well as what it was) my best 400m, km etc. were in the month. But I guess that's not so important.

Nope. My mistake!

I’m not sure where mine is getting its data, but it’s not Jan’23.

(I’ve run 3 miles and walked 5)

I'm seeing that too Fizz - think it's just regenerating Fetch's data? Similar thing happens if I change the month

I love the idea of creating previous months, but think it was picking up the data wrongly? Looks good though! G

Mine is missing lots of miles too.

Hello, mine's not pulling my data through either - I get the same infographic shown above for running. The walking one isn't working either. It's looking fab though (even if it's not the right data!)

Same here. Looks great though.

Well spotted CumbriAndy. Have another go everyone. I’m just off for a swim.

That's better. I'll have a proper play (and try to work out what it's telling me) when I get back from a run

Mine doesn't contain any biggest hills, see May 2022 for instance!

I couldn’t “share”, it just jumps to start page.
I thing the heart should be bigger so you see the HR better
And my favorite distance is incorrect, it takes one I ran 2 times over one I ran 9 times.

should be nice once finished off

👍

My only critique is that the bar chart for HR has unreadable axis data as my cyan and green categories overlap enormously. Otherwise, looks good!

The percentages on the hills is a bit misleading. Whenever I see a percentage against a hill I think gradient. Otherwise I like it!

They are gradients.

In the circular but it says my favourite distance is 7 miles - done 3 times, yet round the edge it says I’ve done 3 miles 6 times.

Looks good 👍

Oooo exciting 😀

It does look good, in fact I think it looks better than the annual one for being less 'busy'.

Nice.

Can we have something user-defined in the blank space? It would probably be a complete pain in the bum to code, but a race or session that we're pleased with and want to highlight.

Or one that might serve as a warning to others? "Don't try 4 x 6:00 in the evening after eight miles at lunchtime, folks. It's really going to suck."

ohhhhh

That looks pretty good. The Empire State Building, I'd quite like a Post Office Tower . An idea for later might be to include the fetch challenges ( which would be painful admittedly ) but might work for Rachel's self defined. Perhaps next 3 races? Perhaps recent training. Perhaps lifetime run, walk, biking. Those could all be toggled in/out?

Links to blogs.

Perhaps the weekly view of that month....

Ah ha! Yearly distance targets progress.

does look nice graphic

A comment box could actually be a useful addition.

Would be nice to have the option to replace benchmarks with races instead.

Looking very good 😁

la mia idea forse mi ripeto e che in quel riquadro ci possa far entrare una foto che l'utente ha messo in un suo allenamento, cosi a caso almeno vi è anche un ricordo visivo!!

tradotto:

maybe my idea is repeating myself and that in that box we can let in a photo that the user has put in his training, so at least there is also a visual memory!!

That’s why we love you and why I tell everyone they should follow the red line not the orange one. And have to say your stats far outweigh what I see orange followers sharing. They’ll learn if they open their eyes and leave the sheep to their devices. #teamfetch

You had me worried there for a moment 😄

Me too! But then I am a little distracted by 'life issues' at the moment. Should have realised! 🙄😂

but you had me going there for a sec! Thank you for FE! #teamfetch

I wondered if it was April 1st 🤣🤣

Haha

I did suspect it was a tease

Where is the like button, so I can like this post?

can we have the orange slogan on a Fetch T shirt

I knew you’d never do it.

LOVE

Haha! (FF - me too!)

I love this

Bill Bailey is a very funny fella. And scruples too? Who knew? Keep being super, man. G

But have you really thought about this? You could sell your web services to Asda for a shed* load of dosh. Give them, and their shoppers all sorts of interesting and revenue generating data analysis and insight.
Think - supermarkets could play their own conquersize or WSW to get customers to visit all sections.
They could do a version of rundle with special offers.
They might have to cut the cycling and swimming, although I suppose the mobility scooters could count.

*Now you have a big shed

You’ve escaped to corporate bitch world once, don’t ever look back…. Keep up the hard work 👍

👍

nearly got me ya cheeky wee scamp

❤️

grazie di esistere jan

And that’s why we will always support you. Someone who cares about their users/supporters/customers - who would have thought such a thing could be? If there were more like you it’d be a better world.

What if everyone wasn't an arsehole? Fetch.

My favourite corner of the internet (I knew you'd never do it as well)

Love you, mate, and we all love the site too.

I've been pestered all week by another site (not running-related) to upgrade from free to paid membership "it's only a dollar a week" etc etc. My decision was no and I'm very glad that Fetch manages to fund via the goodwill of members rather than a fixed rate paywall. Long may it continue.

You had me going there. I thought you’d had to break the ‘free forever’ promise. So glad you’re still free. I love this site.

Knew it was a joke without reading the post, but you have reminded me that I haven't updated my standing order for ages. Happy to hang around here, even when I'm not doing much running.

Love the sentiment. Not sure it needed the sw**ring. Fetch is something different, something better.

What would we do without you????? Honestly you are the thread that goes through all my years of running! Thank you!

Ha ha you are ace 😊

😊

❤️

I knew it was a ruse. This site is ace and I'm not going anywhere else!

Honestly, I only still have the orange site to see how friends who won't join here are doing 😓

A top community working together.

👍

🤩🤩🤩

You da BEST!

You da BEST!

Lol. And after I just put your price up yesterday (it’s still not much, but every little helps, I hope!)

Does premium get an edit button? 😂😂😂

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

😀👍😀

Turn the months into weekly days (Mon to Sun), the weeks into how many days of the month. The rest would speak for itself.

I would like to have HR instead of pace, like we asked about for the yearly one.

I like FF's idea! Probably have to lose the 'annual target rocket' but the rest should work.
Also - I'd love an infographic which showcased cumulative mileage for all years, on the same basis (turn the months into years).

I wonder how many people record heart rate? Would you be able to have alternatives for those that don't or would there just be a blank graph?

Because there would be more room perhaps incorporating both pace and HR could happen.

@Dio - I'm hoping to amend the layout to reflect the volume of data available. So if you don't record HR or cadence, the rest of the data would expand to fill the gaps and look nice. Hopefully.

It'd be good to show performance against the last whole month too - with a nice up or down arrow?

I know this is a running website..... , but will it be able to display swim and bike as well as run?

The annual one does, so I don't see why not.

Could walking also appear? Ive noted my breaking is usually a culmination of increasing both. No of cross training sessions recorded would be handy too if it doesnt wreck the look

Walking is a category with the annual graphic, so it'll be there on the monthly one too.

I like to see stats vs. last year (or last month?)
And also a breakdown of pace for different runs - ie treadmill, race, trail, general

there is a very active 100 miles in a month forum, so maybe have the option of a monthly target and keep the rocket

Perhaps a breakdown of albums listened to?

With the current fuss about strava and pricing, it appears that one of the features most used over there is improvemnt against segments - Wondering if a fetch mile time beaten highlight might be useful?

Maybe some streak days? Maybe, please, thank you!

ascent? For some that's more important than distance.

I like the map int he bottom right, keep that please
Maybe for the graph have the previous 12 months so you can see improvement or otherwise? It needs to be 12 previous months, so you get this month last year, as that might be the most useful comparison for some things?

I would like to see something about performance against plan. The training plan page is always looking ahead (maybe a clue in the name!) but I would like to see how many of the planned runs I actually did looking backwards. This could be on the info graphics, or possibly keep the past info on the training page, rather than it being lost as soon as the date is past?

sarebbe bello poter assorbire se c'è una foto che si è messo durante un attività cosi da trovarcela sul riepilogo, inoltre in parte piccoli dati sul mese precedente e relativi sopra e sotto rispetto al mese passato Spero che puoi capire e tradurre Grazie

Only two points from me. I really like it on the whole. I personally would prefer percentage of total distance against HR zones rather than pace. Also, the Ascent graphic has a person on a parachute, something one would use to go down, not up...

Nice touch. Take back (full) control

Thank you

Thak you.

Oops! Thank you *even* 😂

Bravo. Good call

Here's a bit of an odd thing: When you click "Save changes" the radio button for "Allow people to see your buddy list on your profile?" unticks itself.

Whoops. Fixed now.

Ta!

You're a star. Thank you

Walking. Walking as a separate entry.

Pardon?

Sorry. That was for the monthly infographic!

Very good. As a serial joiner, I'm in. That'll spread the field nice and wide for you!

Sounds good. Thanks, Fetch. As I've got some races coming up, I'll give it a go!

I'm in, my best hope is probably the marathon, although my next one will be 2 weeks over the 12 months from the previous one! Although my mile one is probably do-able

I’m in

I'm sure I'm probably supposed to know this but how do you change the benchmarks if they're inaccurate?

TBR - on the benchmarks page there's a bin symbol on the row of each benchmark generated from your GPS entries, so you can delete any inaccuracies. If the inaccurate benchmark is from a race result, then go to the race page and edit your time.

Why not, I'm in and for those that read comments I'm on the up (I hope).

Oh I clicked the link. Glad it's from last 12 months hopefully I'm on the up

Me too!😃

Great name

Would that just be the gps benchmarks? As i think the normal benchmarks also include runs based on the race result without gps? Not an issue, I just wondered if they would be included?

That's a great idea to look at the last 12 months only. I dip into this from time to time and find that I am usually backing runners who have only done a distance once or twice before and ignoring more experienced runners. This will improve interest and, hopefully, take-up.

Yay! I read this thinking ooh yes, I'd love that - it used to be my favourite game, way back when I was a PB contender myself. Then I clicked on the link to vote for the feature - to find it was my suggestion 🤣. Too many 'meh's' though, come on people!!

Assuming that you don't want to attract attention with words like "b*t", "wa*er" and "g*mble", how about "Never tell me the odds"? (I don't think Star Wars can claim copyright?)

As I am reading a Mick Herron book at the moment, my first thought was “Slow Horses” but that might be a bit obscure.

Perhaps I should call the new version Better. Or Betterer.

....or Bettering

Fetchcoin.

Ploddy Power?

“As a horse” …

Well, if it's well matured athletes/antiques, how about 'basic, better, best'.

Part of the overhaul could usefully include some kind of range or reasonableness check on PB announcements (or maybe that could be done in the race section "Are you Sure?"). The top three runners today have all evidently put predictions in on the race listings at a different distance from what they are going to run, eg there's a Grizedale 10 and a Grizedale 13:

Bet Fetch?

I wonder how doing it by WAVA would work? An interesting adjunct?

Ploddy Power LOL

Flutter? We all like a flutter and it's *definitely* not betting!

Spread Fetch. Fetch Improvers. Predict-a-Fetch.

"The Money Laundering Game". That should fool 'em.

I think Llamadance has the winner ^^^^

LOL @ GordonG!!

LOL @ GordonG

Can you have a system to bet against people improving?

[I have 0 credits, so my options are a bit limited anyway]

I'm hefty. It's fine. No really, it's fine. I'll be over here eating Dairy Milk until I feel better about myself.

*Burp*... 'More tea vicar'

I misunderstood, I thought you burped 'yikes' rather than said yikes as an acknowledgement of the burp. For a long time I used to say 'burp' whilst burping, a habit I picked up off my brother as a child.

This is strange.

A) have not heard you say yikes when you burp
B) I don’t have a B exactly but you know that you say ook during your burp? Not as a pardon.

C) I don’t have a C.

Weean - you didn't misunderstand. I say yikes during the burp.

Mrs Katie - I will make sure to point it in your direction next time

Oooh better out than in 😃. My birthday and I had word burping competitions when we were kids 😳🤣

Any chance we can have a personal Notes field for each person in one's People You Follow list? I'd like one to remind me about what aspect of someone's training I am interested in.

Perhaps a cross training burps category?

is this just burp chat, or can we do fart chat as well?

Escaping gas is escaping gas!

Toot Toot!

Better out than in (whichever end it's coming from!)

Windy in here

I can burp and say bollocks at the same time. Andrew Marr's sister taught me how to do it. She's amazing.

If I know that the forth coming burp will be a short burp, I’ll say “bep” which is what my Grampy used to do.

Can't burp. *sadface*

I think I say burp after I've burped.

I’m feeling inept too JK

Excuse me.

Glad it's not just me JCB My housemate burps the alphabet, so I've always felt rather inadequate!

I just want to point out that this is the best thing on the internet right now.

Also, I knew MrIM was the one for me when I inadvertently farted in his presence in the early days of our courtship and he didn't miss a beat, just carried on watching the film and said: 'Hello.'

Have you found you've been burping more since (and during) your recent covid infection? Wondering of that is just me! Hope you are recovering well BTW.

Nice work on the "following " features, thanks!

That nearly made me spit my tea out Iron Mum 😅

Same as Mushroom. Sometimes with “one lump or two” in response…

I say nowt and just look pleased with myself.

I have a friend who says “uh oh” *before* burping but my favourite response should someone fart in your presence is “a bit more choke and I think she’ll start!”

How dare you burp* before my wife?
I'm sorry, I didn't realise it was her turn....

* also works with fart, obvs

I’ve just remembered that my dad used to say beg pudding instead of I beg your pardon when he burped. He just laughed when he farted. I take after dad.

That sounds brilliant.

I would have settled for legible, so that's a win

Would you get a notification when a run is uploaded before it gets it's category changed (assuming you are online whilst it happens)? And then if you only log on after the category is changed would you only get a notification then? Or are you thinking people might untick "Run: General" to avoid that (just as an example)?

The notification would be generated at the point that the training entry or blog is created. I'm thinking that this would be top-level categories i.e. run/bike/swim/walk/cross, rather than any subcategories.

Sounds like a useful tweak:)

sounds good, thanks!

I like this, thanks

Me likely

However I can’t type.

I like this too. Thank you.

I stand by 'brilliant' because I don't like loads of notifications, am always trying to streamline the amount but too much and I miss stuff I want to know.

Sounds good!

That sounds really good 👍

Useful

That sounds like a really useful adaptation. Thanks, Fetch

Yes. Thanks, Fetch.

I don't think I even followed anyone Vs buddy and blog watch but I seem to be set up for following a bunch of stuff currently which I'm presuming is down to the changes. Am I suddenly going to get a bunch of notifications or will this respect previous settings?

You saw it midway through the update. If you had just favourited some bloggers, it will just notify you of those; but if you had clicked the follow button against anyone (in your case, you hadn't), you'll get blog notifications unless you turn it off.

Ah ok, thanks.

Sounds very good to me

Yay, thank you!

Definitely approve, thanks!

Good update.
I have seen my updated list of Followers. How can I tell who is following my blogs and who is following my training?

Liking this!

This is great ! (And how do I block someone?)

How do I ‘unfollow’ someone?

TGD and SarahWoo go to fetcheveryone.com/people.php

SarahWoo - to unfollow completely, you can go to their profile and click the ‘Following’ button.

The Great Dollop - send me feedback and I can block any follows.

Flatlandler - at present you can’t see the specifics, just that someone is following - but if you have any concerns, drop me a line directly.

No concerns, just interested.

It seems it also merges the blog notification and following - I got a following badge today without doing anything. Other than having blog notifications added to me followers list.
Was that an intended consequence?

I'm not sure that I thought about it as such, but a follower is a follower, whether it's training or blogs.

If people are following me, can they see my training details?

What people can see is controlled by you from here: fetcheveryone.com/user-settings-visibility.php

I used the don't allow followers options previously (I presume I didn't see the point in allowing people to be notified of my training), how does that work now?

I'm sure there used to be page with buddies training recent training? Presuming that's gone for future changes around all this?

I've fmailed all the people who don't allow followers. In short, because blog notifications now come under the follow button, I've just disabled notifications for the folks who don't allow followers.

The 'buddies' system is the opposite to followers. Making someone a buddy doesn't give you more access to them, it gives them more access to you e.g. buddy-only blogs, or buddy-only views of your training if you've set your sharing up to restrict it. There are potentially a few places where this is applied inconsistently, but you can report them to me via feedback.

...disabled *blog* notifications...

Sounds a nasty time healthwise. I have quire a bit of sympathy. I kept a record when my bladder played up 18 months ago. 11 times in one night. Awful. Fingers crossed all is well.

Blimey that's a rough ride. Glad you're feeling better now

Glad you are feeling much much better. RHR for is the best indicator of illness. I tend to have a rise of around 7-8 beats and then typically a few days later come down with something. Its like the body is working harder to fight something off, sometimes the body wins and dont get any illness, others it doesnt and out comes the illness a few days later.

You're a good man, Fetch.

Really pleased that you are feeling betterer xx

Fingers crossed that all is well.

That sounds like a horrible time, health-wise. You take good care of each other now - we need you! xxx

Sorry to hear about all the poorly people, glad to hear some of you are on the mend.

Take care and hope you are all healthy this year.xx

Sounds horrid. Hugs. Hope your boy has it mildly and you can see him soon

The long shirt is the biz

Shirt ordered and payment made Glad you’re feeling better!

Glad to hear you’re getting better. Your heart rate story is encouraging - Covid has pushed mine above 50 for the first time in as long as I can remember.

Thats sounds bit of stinker. I hope you are all on mend

Fingers crossed that you remain well. Sounds like you could do with some good luck now.

What a rubbish time. Glad to read your're both feeling better. The specificity of antib's always amazes me .

That sounds like you had a thoroughly miserable time. Glad you are all better. There’s quite a lot of bugs doing the rounds just now.

what a nasty palaver for you. take it gently in your return to normality

Vest is that a tank top/singlet kind?

It's this sort of cut (but with the updated design as per my link):

Lovely, I have to get me one of those Then I’ll look the part anyway.

I’m kinda small, 172cm 67kg, anyone know size wise where I would be?
The long sleeve shirt I bought in M last year, is on the larger side for me.
Will a vest in small be ok maybe?

If you scroll to the bottom of the preorder page, there are some measurements that might be useful in deciding.

Glad you’re on the mend and Happy New Year! x

Hope you are all feeling better.
Do you have an image of the long sleeve version of the shirts?

Closest I have is this artist's impression:

Thank you, that will do nicely.

Glad you're nearly better. UTIs can be nasty. Hope you get to see boy soon too. G

You've been through the health-mangle haven't you? I hope you can all get some matching good health at the same time now.

Sounds a rough time you've had of it. Hope you're properly on the mend now, and get to see your respective offspring soon.

Hope you are both fully recovered now and can both get to see your boys.

Glad to hear you are both ok now - I came down with what I thought was flu on Christmas eve, really poorly on Christmas day and didn't get out of bed for most of the day. Plans to spend the day at no.2 son's with rest of family were binned. Plans for them to visit me on Boxing day also had to be binned as I tested positive for Covid that morning. Stuck at home feeling sorry for myself for several days, but only three days of feeling really unwell and then on the mend. I am still battling a lot of residual tiredness, which I am assured is normal. Do take it easy - it sounds like you've had a double whammy of Christmas illness! On the bright side, I did catch up with loads of TV I'd recorded and hadn't had time to watch! I did eventually get to have a sort-of Christmas lunch with my son - hope you get to do the same soon.

What a rough time - glad to hear things are improving and hope the still poorly ones are soon on the mend too

I guess you are over the worst of it. I hope you have no more infections for a long time.

Glad you're on the mend.

But please, be very careful about your recovery - you don't want to end up like me.

Seems to have worked for me - thanks.

Yup, fine again now.

Thanks Ian

Loving this

Where will I find the "list and review all your books" please?

Here you go: fetcheveryone.com/mybooks.php

good stuff. I have 4 new albums queued up already...

Cool. I had previously thought of starting a thread to get some Fetch playlists together, to try and reach beyond the Spotify algorithms, but never got around to it. This might scratch that itch!

Thanks, Fetch!

Can I just recommend the new Val Doonican album? There's a few more Drill and Drum n Bass influences on this one as well as the usual death metal classics.

Can we have badges for books, please? Or are they already there? Or would that be telling? 😉

Everyone knows pop music’s been going downhill since Buddy Holly died

Well timed - I finally bought some Bluetooth earbuds so I can listen to music/podcasts last week!
I hope you're starting to feel better from your covid infection now?

What...? Buddy Holly's dead? Noooo! But he was only just on Jools Holland's Hootenany the other night.

BBC show nothing but repeats. I watched the Eddie Cochran Boxing Day Special and wondered why it was in black and white
