Tribble Trouble

What's the difference between triple and treble? No difference but the Enlish language likes having multiple words for the same thing and it is indeed a beautiful thing. Now, Tribbles are a completely different kettle of fish altogether. I believe they were introduced by The Goodies and they are nice pets - no feeding or pooping.

There was a program on The Goodies last night but I fell asleep through it - however I think they said there were 9 series and they weren't repeated. I have trouble believing the second statistic although I am confident that they weren't repeated in recent years. It's classic comedy, albeit a little dated now, and deserves a re-run. Trouble is it's owned by the BBC who have probably burnt it, copied an episode of Eastenders over the top of it or are hanging on to their copyright so tightly that they have white knuckles aso nobody gets a look in. Or all three.
