    There was a series rte used to show in the mid late 70s early 80s. It was a sort of western but was set around the 1920s so there were cars and planes and so on in it.It revolved around two guys in a souped up car tearing around the tex mex border getting into all kinds of scrapes.I cant think of the title. .Any ideas?

    Doubt it, Dukes of hazzard was 1970s and no planes.
    Cant think of name though, vague recollections possibly imagined, what kind of car? What time shown?

    Vintage sports car from the 20s,not sure what time shown maybe early evening.Of the two main characters one was blond one dark haired which is probably where the dukes of hazard confusion stems from.

    There was a BBC drama series or miniseries in the early 80s I think. It was about a people who survived a plague. The series was all about their survival and that's all I got. The latest season of Spooks brought it to mind but can remember nothing else about it. :rolleyes:

    Doubt it. This is most likely it - it probably seems very, well early eighties...
