Hats on TV

There's a show that recently concluded, Derry Girls.

Granda Joe has a really cool hat. The actor (Ian McIlhenny from Star Wqrs and Game Of Thrones) said he got permission to keep the hat once the show wrapped.

Felt hats were rarely seen in Northern / the North of Ireland by the 90s, but around Stroke City where Granda Joe lived, when they were spotted, it would have been worn by men his age, and dressed just like that. The wardrobe for the period was very well observed in general, but Joe especially as a man of a certain age, most of whom would be passed on now, 25 years after the point in time they'd reached when the show wrapped.

One of my favorite TV Westerns, growing up. "Cheyenne" was a favorite, and Cint Walker was a big guy at 6'6. James Arness, (Matt Dillon), was even taller at 6'7.

Clint Walker:
Funny you talking of Clint Walker. I was just going thru a bunch of stuff from my childhood, that my Mom had kept. Found a paper with Clint Walkers autograph. He had come somewhere close to Nashville years ago and that’s when I got it.

That's something to have. Those old TV Westerns were a big part of my childhood too, and Cheyenne was one of my favorites. Maverick was another one I liked.
