Norway's longest serving police car was retired last year after 26 years of faithful service.

How the Russians used to pose with their cars. Shyly.

Maybe if they hadn't spent so much on the picnic they are clearly not going to eat they could have afforded the optional alloys.

My better a few years back, during the collection of the 190e on the rather fetching 3 spokes.

It was one of my favourites as well. They only did about 12 episodes many of which are now missing

I used to love a bit of Chocka Block. We recently watched a bit on YT - literally the first time since childhood.  As with all these things, it wasn't quite as good as I remembered...

I didn't realise there were so few episodes produced. How do they manage to 'lose' episodes - crap storage?

A lot of programmes were deemed outdated or unsellable overseas and the BBC, ITV etc wiped and re-used video tape. Many saturday kids shows were live and only a few got recorded so very little remains. Look up missing episodes of Dad’s Army, Dr Who, Z-Cars etc it goes into quite a bit of detail what exactly happened as it’s too long to put here.
