Nice compilation Naptu...you really had a swell childhood.

There's this show I used to watch then in the 80s,it portrayed two swords men like musketeers, one was on black costumes and signified evil while the other was on white costumes signifying good.
They had the ability to appear and dissappear in a whiff of smoke.

In all their encounters the good swords man always wins.

Can you remember the show?

No, it was set in renaissance era but more of a comedy.

It's there (with its full name). Meanwhile, read the first sentence in that post).
Re: Fawlty Towers Actress Prunella Scales Has Died Aged 93 by Kalulu44: 1:16pm On Oct 29, 2025
Naptu2, in all the listed sitcom and movies. How did you skip the popular Doctor Who and Frank Spencer comedy back then. Even Robinhood the prince of thieves

OK, now I realise that you are just trolling. Others have tried to do the same thing (mention shows that I listed and claim that I didn't list them), but I ignored them.

And now I'm going to ignore you too.

Honestly Naptu2, I am not trolling but serious. And you're have already answered me earlier in one of your mention. Before I did this follow up. And to tell you the honest truth, I haven't even go back to get the exact title of Doctor Who and Frank Spencer series

Your Bible is confusing. The same Bible that told you that the dead will be judged?

The way she would call Basil to order and his instant compliance always made me laugh.

Boss thanks for these. You can't exhaust the list. Sir Roger Moore, Tony Curtis and Ian Ogilvy both starred at different times in Leslie Charteris' The Saint and Return of The Saint too.
