      @EthnoEuropean's CountriesAreBeingInvaded The show was videotaped in 1987 in analogue 625 line PAL for broadcast to audiences in the UK with glass tube TV sets rarely bigger than 24 inches. We had only four channels then, all in glorious surround mono. So no, there won't be an HD version.

      Yes Queen Victoria and her consort were also German. They changed the family name to Windsor to seem more English. Albert never lost his strong German accent and never tried to. The irony in history is that a German government in England was fighting a German government in Germany. But then francified Norman Vikings were fighting against Anglo Saxon. So, all fighting all the time.

The sad thing is not many people around me shared the same sense of humor, they didn't get it. I was a geek/nerd back then and I had my own laughs lol only me and closest friends who studied could understand. I grew up in Croatia, ex Yugoslavia at the time the show was on the TV I always loved later to be the most popular British actors ever.
