I miss old comedies. This was a very well written and acted show. I watched it when it first came out and am still watching it! haha This can never be repeated . There was a time when comedy shows and series were attracting up to 20 million views per episode and not one single swearword was uttered. Nothing rude or over the top, hence the whole family could be entertained. Such a shame how the English language has been so degraded these days.
not 1 swearword you should rewatch S1 E1, S2 E1 both contain the word bast**d and the film is always edited bob i could give a shit, terry oh just piss off
Lads follow the trend. Give your best 5 bbc shows. Has to be before the year 2000. 1. Only fools. 2. Porridge 3. Some mothers do have em. 4. Fawlty towers. 5. Likely lads. Give your top 5. Just curious
These are all TV shows from before Thatcher's 1990 Broadcasting Act deregulated British TV and initiated the dive to the bottom. OFAH is the only one that survived the Act although even that sole exception was limited to Christmas specials after 1991.
Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam ." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"
