Shed.TV Sheds in British Comedy

I was thinking the other day how much sheds have affected British life and of course I did that post about Newspaper cartoons… with Giles and the like.

But I remember when I was a kid about 12, my dad used to let me watch Bless this House when my mother was not around…as she did not approve.

Anyway at a high profile shed based meeting in the pub the other day, we got onto Sid James and someone remembered Sid’s Shed catching on fire in an episode of the show, when they were trying to make their own brandy, and lo and behold Youtube comes to the rescue yet again, but it’s on the Bless this House movie.

If you remember any sheds in TV comedy let me know and I will do more posts on them

Shed.TV the future is flip

We now have readersheds branded Flip Mino’s video recorders.

Making and sharing great video has never been easier. Or more fun. The ultra-thin & pocket-sized Flip Video Mino camcorder has a handy USB arm that flips out and hooks up to your PC or Mac. This charges the battery, plus lets you use its built-in software to easily view, edit, and upload video and photos to favorite sharing sites.

* Records 60 minutes of VGA-quality video
* Built-in rechargeable Lithium Ion battery

So if any sheddies use them, put the videos up on youtube and let me know and I will feature them on our SHED.TV thing here on the blog.

Tennant stepped into the Tardis in 2005, and will leave the role after four special episodes are broadcast next year.

He made the announcement after winning the outstanding drama performance prize at the National Television Awards.

Shed.TV : The planners are coming

On Last nights TV


Planning permission isn’t needed to put a shed at the end of a garden, but if it has a bathroom and a bed in it, it’s a different matter. In North London the death knell sounds for an unlawful building, as the council decides they’ve had enough and it’s time for direct action - much to the owning family’s distress. Will the head of enforcement, Tim Rolt, be swayed by their sit-in protest and give the building a reprieve, or will he make sure it’s demolished there and then?

Shed.TV : Start them early

A great video, showing that shed building can be for all ages, but removed since :(
