The things you hear !

Followed my neighbour down the stairs she was talking on her phone, "he just stuck it in and rummaged about a bit, seemed to work " then spent the rest of my afternoon wondering what and who she was talking about

Re: The things you hear !

Does anyone remember a radio show from years back called "What are they talking about", they played a short excerpt from a well know play or film and asked the contestants to name the work. We all loved it in our house in the days before TV.
Maybe it was only on Radio Eireann the Irish radio station, but I imagine it originated in Britain or the USA, we usually adapted programs from somewhere else and localised them.
