    I'm not having Bottle Boys as the worst sitcom of all-time when the BBC is
    still inflicting Mrs Brown's Boys on us. Truly truly awful in every way possible.

    Thank you! You've taken me right back to my childhood! My kids are blown away by the idea that with only 3 (and later 4) channels to choose from, most of us just watched what was on, even if we weren't that interested! Without CGI etc, decent drama on telly was carried by good writing and acting. I would love to hear your take on my childhood favourites Citizen Smith, Home To Roost and The Frontline.

    Aubrey and Cats Eyes are the only shows that I remember from that list. In the 80s, I started cadets, so I was away at least 2 nights a week and most weekends then hanging out with my mates from cadets. so I didnt watch much television. I got the 'You treat this place like a hotel' line from my mum or her other favourite line used on me was, 'What's up? you ill, not going out?'. Again, thank you for another fun and enjoyable video.

      Same 2 shows for me in this lineup, with Aubrey being the one I have the fondest memories of.
      I can't really recall anything about Cat's Eyes but I know I watched it & thought it was fairly serviceable. But we in Scotland had the legendary Taggart, so it's hard for other cop dramas to compete!
      Although Juliet Bravo was probably more contemporary & also enjoyable enough.

I remember watching “Bottle Boys” and finding it quite funny, but then there were only three TV 📺 Channels, and I suppose we were not too choosy. I have vague memories of “You Must be the Husband” “Cats Eyes” and “Chance in a Million” but the rest passed me by... Another Situation Comedy 🎭 I remember was “Lovely Couple” starring Pauline Quirke. I can still recall the catchy theme tune. A quick google search, and I realised it was broadcast in 1979. Thanks again Stu...Already looking forward to the next video.📹

    Thanks Stuview, me too in my late teens and early 20s I was too busy gallivanting around town, bars,music, nightclubbing, like you do at that age! So most of these TV series I'd never heard of before? I remember Bottle Boys, it was hilarious, but I think it had a 70s bawdy humour and mindset, which didn't go down too well in the mid 80s. Sensibilities had changed there was more of a serious feminist/the lady's not for turning attitude to women in the 80s, a bit like today with Multiculturalism/race. Continuing on that theme, The Gentle Touch and Cats Eyes, were before it's time, three competent women and a black boss, PC aside the plots and storylines were excellent. I wished I'd known about Smuggler as I like period pieces and Lesley Dunlop. I don't know if you've included it in part 1?But Just Good Friends on BBC1 was a very funny sitcom and very indicative of the 80s, the pretensions, snobbery and competitive upward mobility of that decade. 📺 Brian 🤗

      Just Good Friends has long been a favourite of mine. I think it's too well remembered to get included in a forgotten TV video but if I ever do a video on classic 80s sitcoms it will definitely be featured.

    I have Artemis 81 on DVD, or I think I have. I brought it with me to Australia when I emigrated almost seven years ago.
    I am now going to have to check it is in the garage with my other DVD’s.

    Awww remember most of these extremely fondly and I’m still completely obsessed with cats eyes and always will be , however Artemis 81 and the one game both ones I really don’t remember fascinating stuff, I do think a lot of these are a bit forgotten today because of the lack of repeats or commercial releases
