    Mollie 2009, Wendy 2009, Trevor 2011, Frank 2013, Nicholas 2015.
    Arthur Brough, 1978
    The best ensemble cast I have ever seen on television, ever .

      This is also my favorite type of comedy, use of witt and charm rather than slapstick routines, hence why I mostly prefer British comedy such as this and keeping up appearances.
      Also why I do not like Jerry Lewis type comedy predicated on stupidity.

    This show has been a mainstay for me as a means of making light of a busy day or being down in the doldrums or just a means of relaxation - I believe most of the original actors have passed, however, I hope their legacy of such an iconic and much appreciated entertainment feature will continue towards the future (I am 82 years old and I live in Rarotonga, Cook Islands, South Pacific)

      I don't think Mr. Rumbold's character would be possible to endure if he had the libido of Captain Peacock, Mr. Lucas, or heck ... Mr. Grace. It would have creeped him up big time in a way that's difficult to explain. It's easy to like him as an incompetent (but generally well-intended) oblivious, asexual, doofus.

      I love how they kept small mistakes in such as when Mr Grainger starts his line early asking where the iron came from. It somehow makes it more personable and not so strangely polished and perfect like modern shows. Also it has an almost stage feel, especially the earlier episodes with how the dialogue was written and presented and the scene blocking. I felt it really worked well for the show.

It starred Jerry Van Dyke (real life brother of TV comedy icon Dick Van Dyke) as a husband and father whose mother is reincarnated as an automobile (a 1912 Porter to be exact). She speaks to him thru the car radio. The mother's voice was provided by veteran movie & TV actress Ann Sothern. Clips from the series can be seen here at RUclips.

      I could not interprete the humor about going to the ball exactly, but the comment made sense. :) Cold does make things retract up.
      In these days of computers, to finally video something as you vowed, how about sitting down and reciting the joke of Neil Gaiman. There is no text.
      A tangent; the expression "turn the other cheek" - for all my life I thought it refered to a person's bum. (uk term). If someone hits my cheek, I'm ducking next time.
      As for the IMO corruption of the word "marriage" by the gay community and the USA, instead of using a newer term, a better term such as "civil partnership", married makes as much sense as "Insert tab A into tab B". It does not work, except in legal documents.
