Yes, it does. Thanks for watching
Splendid video 👏👏. To see the joy on Mrs Bazza’s face at South Foork is simply priceless - Terry Wogan has a lot to answer for 🤣🤣

We’ve just watched this vlog, it’s great to see Maxine had such a great time and we ALL laughed at the thought of you being a “stud” - at least you still have your humour 😂

Great, bought back memories in my early 20s with a newborn watching Dallas. Terry Wogan calling Sue Ellen ,Swelling as she was a drinker ha ha. And being windswept sitting by the pool.

Southfork is still on my bucket list, Dallas still my favourite show have all the series on dvd and still watch them. I was lucky enough to meet Linda Gray (aka Sue Ellen) on a cruise to Norway when she was onboard as a guest speaker and had my picture taken with her it has pride of place in my kitchen.

Loved it, the joy on Maxines face is wonderful. And your vlog has brought back hapoy memories of watching dallas on the tv, but I have to point out that JR wasn't shot in a hotel room, it was in the offices that the Ewings used.😊

Absolutely loved this! Huge Dallas fan (& Dynasty). JR Ewing plagued me at High school, my maiden name initials were JR and everywhere I went I got 'who shot you JR' 😂 Much better initials when I married .... I'm now a JD 👍😁 Lovely to see you both enjoying yourselves together ❤️

On catch up. Dallas was huge in our house as well. Dynasty not so much. But I did enjoy Knots Landing which was the Dallas spin off with bad brother Gary. It was even windy for you - they would sit at the swimming pool with a gale howling messing with the hair. Gillian

I saw the tour walk thru on the guys channel so i ff thru that part but enjoyed the rest of it! We didn't have cable where i lived until early 1990's and so we had only 6 channels one of them played Dallas so ofc we watched it but once i got cable and had many more channels i didnt' care who shot jr much lol but it was definitely iconic!

It was a a big deal in the UK when it happened
I can still recall going with my Mum and Dad to a "who shot JR" party at one of their friends' homes . Amazing that a TV Soap Opera could have that impact on a Nation. (Simpler times). Great Vlog Great Memories 👍

It made the UK TV news I seem to remember
This brought so many memories of the TV show. Question - I was lead to believe that people working in American got very few holidays - but you seem to have a decent amount of holidays like we do in the U.K. Was I incorrectly informed?

Most US employees start new employees on 10 days annual vacation . I have a senior management position in my company and I have just upgraded to 25 days from 20 after working there 5 years . To give you some idea 20 years ago when I I left the UK with a regular job I have 25 days vacation plus public holidays. It’s taken me 20 years working in the USA to get that back
This made Caz very happy
