I love both tbh. I grew up watching the classic shows. I have family in Wales and they would record the episodes on beta-max and ship them over for Christmas.

I don’t understand why some  people feel the need to ruining things for others. Very sad.

Personally, I think they should throw the VANDALS that they catch into the reservoir with a 25kg rock tied to their ankles!
