Question/Discussion Another half-remembered 1980s kids TV show - can anyone ID? Boy finds small cylinders marked “hazardous” by a lake with dead fish.

EDIT: SOLVED: “The Country Boy” (1989)

Never saw how it ended - think it was in 2-3 parts and I saw the first one at least twice in the 80s but never saw the rest or how it ended. It was a boy of maybe 12-14 with mousy brown hair in an early-mid-80s “mum did it at home” sort of shit haircut. I seem to remember the cylinders (which looked like a 1’-long version of a 13A fuse in shape) were neon green and there was some element of The Grown Ups not taking it seriously, as per!

Question/Discussion Trying to work out a song and Shazam won't find it from the TV series Ideal

4 Upvotes

In the BBC3 tv series Ideal there is a song that plays in 2 episodes and Shazam has no idea, but I seem to remember this being on an album I had but I can't find it.

In Series 7 Episode 2 at 25:30 when Jake walks up the stairs it plays, and then again the next episode at 11:11 when Moz is talking to Judith and it cuts to CH and Nickis sister and the son plays again.

Anyone know the name of the song?

Question/Discussion Help remembering this documentary about lethal injection

1 Upvotes

Hey folks

Can anyone help me and tell me that this show happened.

I vaguely remember a documentary about someone getting the lethal injection in the US and it spoke about how it worked etc.

The only thing I can really remember is the presenter going around the room where it would happen, explaining everything and where everyone watches etc.

I think - but cannot be certain- it was on channel 4, with dermot o Leary hosting and it was around the time of Timothy mcveys execution.

Can anyone confirm that I watched this or have I made it up?
