Strong sense of deja vu?

Well, it seems that my habit of recycling pages once they've been duplicated in the EG has backfired on me - as it had already been recommended in its last guise, the system wouldn't let it be recommended 'again'.

So here it is, resubmitted on a new page. PR thread was here - F48874?thread=301827 - but any further feedback welcomed.

I've even added a new bit about the repeat screenings farrago... so there!

The moral of the story is stop recycling A-numbers. I mean it's not like we're about to run out of them or anything

No, but they're getting damn hard to remember...

Might be worth mentioning that although it's never been repeated on terristral, it's shown endlessly on Granada Plus. In fact, at one point twice a day.

I was particularly confused by this because I normally work off a bookmarked PR page sorted by date of submission!

So, you dont really need any more comments - this simply has to sit for a week until it's ripe for picking, and since one scout has already found it suitable, this shouldn't be any problem. Good entry, anyway!

off to comment where it might make more of a difference...

We really need edited entries about bubble perms and Ford Capris

Good entry btw


Scout

Thanks for the positive comments, everyone... I've put in a bit about Granada Plus, Kerr, and re-written the two paragraphs I added - hopefully it reads a little better now.

I think those two new paragraphs are rubbish. I wouldn't give up the day job, if I were you.

Oh, get knotted.

Right - well, I'm departing h2g2 for a little while as of tonight (details on my personal space) so with a spot of good fortune, this will get into the guide by the time I get back!

See you all then...

(By the way, yes, I am still on holiday!)

And you couldn't find a few minutes to finish off the entry? *Tut tut*

Hey, we're in the same time zone... I think


Scout

Hey, we might well be... it´s 8.40pm as I type this.

What have I left unfinished, by the way?

Your Guide Entry has just been picked from Peer Review by one of our Scouts, and is now heading off into the Editorial Process, which ends with publication in the Edited Guide. We've therefore moved this Review Conversation out of Peer Review and to the entry itself.

If you'd like to know what happens now, check out the page on 'What Happens after your Entry has been Recommended?' at EditedGuide-Process. We hope this explains everything.

Thanks for contributing to the Edited Guide!

Blimey, and I didn't even have to remind them

Yay! Well done!

(Puts on ice for Number Six to drink on returning)

for Number Six!

Azara

Why, thank you, everyone! Most kind...



Greetings from Mexico - there´s a little update on the 'Byeee' thread in my journal, if you're interested.

Be seeing you...

Very interesting, this thread. A man tries to start a fight in an empty room.
