Wink Great news for UK DS Fans!

Well I have just checked my tv listings and according to the Digi Guide, Trouble are going to air the two parter episode 'The Bank Job' today at 4:00pm and 4:30pm. Wow!
Over the course of next week (at least) they are showing episodes other than those from seasons 1&2. Finally! 'New' episodes of DS on Trouble are long over due. Hopefully they'll carry on airing these 'new' episodes and won't go back to just season 1&2 reruns all the time. *fingers crossed*.

This is the best news I've heard in ages!

Sorry Nightshade, I just sent you an E-Mail telling you about it before I saw this.

I really enjoyed seeing The Bank Job for the first time this afternoon.

I REALLY hope Trouble have bought the rights to the rest of the episodes.

You guys are so lucky!! You might just probably get to see all of the later episodes. Unlike N@N, where they even edit out certain parts.

They won't edit DS anymore. Because they don't show DS anymore. Nick at Nite sucks.

Over the next week Trouble are showing season 3 in order every day. I'm fairly sure they're not editing them.

Yesterday they showed "Small Claims Court" which isn't that funny and today it was "Substitute Mother" that had some funny scenes.

Again, all I can say to you is you lucky @%^&@#! LOL! If they keep playing it in ordering, I bet you might just get to see every episode. Jethro, you better tape those episodes, you never know, a Nick@Nite employee might take over the station and might edit scenes or worse take it off the air!

Thanks for the advice Curtis, I definetly am! I think by the end of next week I should have around 100 episodes on tape and I've now seen all the controversial ones.
I think Trouble have got seasons 3 and 4 so hopefully they will show "Crime Story" 2 parter, has that been shown on Nick @ Nite.

The only thing that annoys be about Trouble is their advert for the show, it shows a lot of clips of Gary Coleman in black and white, it says he lost 18 million working on the show which can't be right and it says he was born in 1968 when he was actually born in 67.
The worst thing about it is it says he now works as a security guard, someone hasn't done their reasearch properly!

The "Crime Story" 2 Parter has aired once on Nick, during their Un-re-al-a-thon.....

Thats how they advertise "Diff'rent Strokes"? That's really not a good marketing strategy! And VERY insulting to the cast members! If they ever do that to Dana Plato, I will get them......I'll swim there (LOL) or send a pack of flying squirles who need to go to the bathroom.

He did lose almost 18 million that he made while on the show, that is true - his parents, managers, etc. made bad investments with his money. He was born in 1968, February 8 1968 to be exact. And he did work as a security guard a couple of years ago, but he no longer does. So they really got 2 out of the 3 correct.

I'm REALLY anoyed at Trouble.

This afternoon I sat down to watch and tape Diffrent strokes, acording to the TV Guide it said "Drummond inherits some land in Harlem" but instead they showed The Father And Son contest episode for about the 17th time in 2 months!

They are mean to be showing new epsidoes from the end of series 3 all week but I don't think they even will now.


Does every Network in the world that show Diffrent Strokes screw it up??
