ITV police drama #DempseyAndMakepeace debuted 11 Jan 1985. Created by Ranald Graham and starring Glynis Barber and Michael Brandon, it was one of the classic 80s will-they-won't-they ships. Sadly cancelled before they "will". Yet still one of our faves!

Our first reedited podcast is UP! We go back to the start of our Pyjama Party A-Z of shippy shows (not comprehensive, but from our POV) and start with BBC 80s supernatural/police drama #AshesToAshes #ust #shippy #notalgia www.youtube.com/watch?v=nroA...

Dempsey and Makepeace - Wheelman (7th September 1985). The first of Murray Smith's four scripts for the series featured a guest appearance by Tom Georgeson (plus a spot of Acker Bilk).

We need a Dempsey and Makepeace revival.

#1985 Two pages from that year’s Dempsey and Makepeace annual based on the TV show, and a panel from an otherwise lost sample page.

The Ship Yard is a podcast which discusses all things TV "shippy" - specifically the unresolved sexual tension, will-they-won't-they ships. We have a particular interest of the classic ships of the 80s and 90s, but talk about current ships too. We are relaunching for 2025! Look out for updates.
