Churchill never went to Russia, apart from Yalta, but that was in the Crimea, so it doesn't count.
 
The new K&C Streets Of Old Durham Town would have to be set in the late Seventies/early Eighties.
Group of Punks kicking the crap out of a Hippy.
Rusty old Ford Escort/Morris Marina/Hillman Avenger with an unpainted fibreglass wing complete with nodding dog in the back shelf and set of furry dice hanging off the rear-view mirror.
Couple of old dogs fighting over who goes home with "Stan", tearing each others hair out with one hand and wielding white handbags in the other, wearing white stilletos with a broken heel.
Biker Gangs.
The endless queue at the late night taxi rank.
Taxi drivers deliberately parked around the corner from the endless queue at the late night taxi rank.
Italians.
Guy with H-A-T-E tattooed on his knuckles taking his Pit Bull Terrier out for a walk at 02:00AM.
A drunk picking a fight with a lamp-post.
The Ladies, mutton dressed as lamb in most cases.
The orange 3.0 litre Ford Capri with a "Stars'n'Stripes" flag painted (by hand) on the roof, with the driver jumping in and out through the open window, even though the driver's door works perfectly well.
A mugging in progress.
Every second doorway posing as Lover's Lane.
Street Beggars.
The dodgy looking guy with the furative eyes hanging around outside the pub being approached by prospective customers of the little cubes of brown sticky smoking material stashed in his inside jacket pocket.
Two old codgers inside the pub playing dominos.
Four punks using a Hippy as a dartboard.
The pub bore. Only guy in the place with "his" barstool that he's sat on for the past 20 years.
Ena Sharples and Minnie Caldwell sitting in the pub snug. Wrong town, wrong era, but who cares - we can stretch things a bit.
Fat slags.
The guy with the ripped shirt and blood pouring down his face who refuses to go to casualty cos he's still got some money left to spend in the next pub.
Nightclub/Pub "Doormen".
The group of frightened university students who decided to venture out of the subsidised union bar for once and try "Roughing it a Bit", finding out what "Living at Street Level" really means.
Football supporters who haven't got home from the match yet and are watching it again (?) on the pub tv.
The zombie who's been playing the space invader machine non stop for 3 days and nights.
People smoking in the pub.
The group of 14-year olds dressed in Parka's thinking they're Mods cos they sneaked in to see "Quadrophenia".
SL figure that looks a bit like Tony Neville.

By no means an exhaustive list.
Aaaaah, happy memories. :):):eek::):)
Will be an awesome range whenever it gets released.

Would love to see the Strictly Limited Hillman Avenger car with the acompanying figure set of " Couple of old dogs fighting over who goes home with "Stan", tearing each others hair out with one hand and wielding white handbags in the other, wearing white stilletos with a broken heel."
Classic:D:D:D
 
Kursk is the winner obvousley. Do like it but I would even like it even more if it had russian churchills.

A couple of pictures of Churchills during the battle of Kursk. They were employed in the infantry support roll as the Soviets felt they were ill equiped to engage enemy armor.

The Soviets loved their Lend Lease gear. The nickname they gave the M3 Lee was "coffin for five brothers"

This isn't word of a lie Colin, there were three brothers in the area of Aberdeen where I lived during the early 1980's who actually chipped in and bought an orange 3.0 litre Ford Capri between them. They did hand-paint a "Stars'n'Stripes" flag on the roof, and they did jump in and out through the open window, even though the driver's door worked perfectly well. When I asked them why the Stars'n'Stripes instead of the Stars'n'Bars, they told me they wanted to be "different".....!!!!!
:D:D:D Unbelievable I know - but a true story all the same.

Cheers

Well yeah,
I think that's why they drove the thing in strict rotation. One of them would drive the deathtrap while the other two would get Blitzed. Then another one would drive the next night. This went on for almost a year until they obviously lost track as to who's turn it was to put the "sensible head" on one night, and the piece of junk got wrapped around a telephone pole.
They were the Thompson Brothers, Feel Gype, Rambo and Alan. One of them died 8 years ago due to alcohol abuse, one of them's presently in the nick at her majesties pleasure - something to do with some domestic dispute, and the other one's still on the prowl I hear. Mind you, their sister Mary was the epitomy of virtue.
They lived at 25 Garthdee Road, Stoneywood, Aberdeen. Used to drink in the Woodend Bar. Check it up on the WB website if you like. It's a true story.

I can't see Stalingrad not being a big hit after the sucess of the fall of Berlin.

Haven't you seen the numerous posts saying that Russian stuff doesn't sell well?

DAH!!!

Blokes relieving themseleves against the wall, skinheads, eating a sloppy kebab after the nightclub, the after effects of a dodgy kebab, guys passed out on the pavement , fistfights, knifefights ,baseball bats, be a great action series:D:D

Ohhhh, I can still taste those things. We had to run around the block to get one and back to the bus before it left town for campus after the University sanctioned club in Lancaster closed for the evening. Also, then had to eat the whole thing in the same trip back around the block in reverse because it wasn't allowed on the bus. A very clever friend of mine tried beating the system by shoving his uneaten kebab down the front of his pants, but was too drunk to avoid passing out without first removing it. :eek:

H, this whole thing is way too funny and I have a pretty good feeling that most of these little vignettes are non fiction. :)
