This morning a colleague mentioned that she had a head-ache. I told her to just unscrew her head and put a different one on. She giggled and then it reminded me of a TV programme I used to watch as a young girl on British Children's television in the late seventies. Gosh, I'm showing my age now..Worzel Gummidge and Aunt Sally.
Worzel was a walking, talking grubby scarecrow, who had a set of interchangeable heads - turnip, mangel worzel and swede heads - each of which suit a particular occasion or endow him with a specific skill. He has mice living in his chest, he's obsessed with cake and he's forever trying to seduce a shop mannequin called Aunt Sally, with whom he is in love.
A bit dark and twisted for kids but it was still pretty cool
Can any of you remember this television show?

Sounds like my type of show.
interchangeable heads...nice.
Hell yeah I remember this, it was on Sat. nights in Dundee and I loved it. Take a look at the blog I wrote called Basil Fawlty fights the Fonz. It was based on a discussion I had with my American wife over American and Brit t.v. shows.
cheers.
Yep! I watched it every week cos I thought Aunt Sally was beautiful, but it still scared the c**p out of me when Werzel screwed his head off. :)
Yep I remember it :-) and I agree screwing his off was freaky!!
NO and that is scary to me as an adult! LOL
