EstoniaTallinnRed Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 On 09/03/2021 at 18:01, Southport Red said: I was watching McDonald & Dodds on Sunday ( I know, I know) and the story was about the murder of a ‘Bath Eagles’ Rugby player who had been signed from France for £400,000. At one point, the male Detective Constable said “£400,000? Bristol City can’t even buy a corner flag for that”. Which got me thinking, which other TV shows have we been nameche Med in? I remember the Aug Wiederkehr Pet one (Bomber) also. Can anyone think of any more? Yes I saw that episode as well and thought that was a good line. Not a bad series, imo.

Albert Steptoe used that phrase on several occasions. In one of BBC's "Play for Today" in the late 60's a character was checking his pools coupon whilst listening to the radio; James Alexander Gordon intoned "Bristol City 1, Rotherham United....2".

I’ve made a mental note of that for the next time I take part in a Bristol City trivia quiz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
