M*A*S*H

Been watching a few episodes of M*A*S*H lately and although I remember loving it in the 70's I'd forgotten how funny it was, but with a serious message of being anti-war.

The one I watched this evening was 'The Interview' and is a bit more serious than the usual episodes, but with little bits of humour of course.

One funny episode connected with M*A*S*H is that when I was a newly married man and posted to RAF Gan, an unaccompanied posting in the Maldives, I had a request played on BBC Radio programme 'Family Favourites'.
I requested the theme music to M*A*S*H for my new wife because we used to watch it together but what I didn't realise was the music is called - 'Suicide is Painless'!!
Not funny when we were separated after only 2 weeks of marriage!

Bit of a cheat on the location map as I've marked it as being 'Addu Attol' where Gan is the southernmost island.
