    An episode of his Australian effort is on You tube. Havnt brung myself to watch it yet cos its awful apparently. I think I'm right in saying that one of the reasons he topped himself was cos he was expecting it to be cancelled. Not knowing that that very day they had decided to produce another series.

    Loved Drop the Dead Donkey. Wouldn't get made today. Too hard to parody the news and current affairs now.

    I always picture ER as more like Lord Percy in Blackadder II.

    I remember The High Life. When Alan Cummings was something other than a tragic self obsessed ****ter that craves constant attention.

    How do you know they don't make them like that anymore?

    Have you seen every recent so called sitcom made in every country around the world? I fear not, somehow.

    Liar, liar, pants on fire!
