Oh, I remember TW3 just not Millie Martin or anyone singing Tom
Lehrer's songs.

Only those with false memory syndrome do. :-)

TW3 and Laugh In were required watching!

Wan't Rowan and Martin's Laugh In at the end of the 1960s?
I first saw it in 1968 in Florida.


I don't remember the timing but I do remember watching it with
flatmates in London and by 1970 I was out of UK & living for a while in
Belgium.


Amazing that we never met :-)


How do we know....?!

Tom Lehrer! Did he figure in TWTWTW?

The U.S. version; I had forgotten that, like a number of imports, (TW)^3
began in the U.K.


Ungrateful lot! I remember seeing Tomfoolery in London donkey's years
ago. Very good, very funny.

A good question!


All I remember is that we lived in a tiny hamlet of 4 or 5 houses, up a
cart track outside Brussels and I think I recall driving to work in
Brussels each morning on the Chaussée de Charleroi. I can't remember
the name of the hamlet but I do know it was on the very edge of the
battlefield of Waterloo. The monument was just visible, iirc. Maybe in
the Nivelles direction? We lived there a year or two after a disastrous
fire in Innovation in the Rue Neuf(?) where many lost their lives, I
believe.
