    Nope, this is not a thread all about Dave <laugh>

    After reading a different thread and the mention of old TV programmes that are no longer with us (unless shown on sky).
    Which programmes would you like to see return.
    For me, unfortunately most of the charcters are no longer with us.
    Here's some of mine anyway.

    Dad's Army - IMHO pure brilliance. All the cast were stars.

    Steptoe and son - Again, brilliant.

    Love Thy Neighbour - Just wouldn't be allowed today at all.

    Secret Army - NOT Allo Allo <grr> <steam>

    Enemy At The Door

    Rising Damp - Brilliant comedy acting and writing.

    The Rag Trade

    Till Deat Do Us Part, and In Sickness and In Health

    The Army Game

    Hancocks Half Hour

    Spike Milligan

    Over to you guys and gals.

    Dad's army is on BBC2 every Saturday evening!

    I'd love a repeat of everything Spike ever did, on a continual loop, I would never ever tire of watching it!

    Great shout with Colditz.

    Anyone remember Hogan's Heroes?

    Leonard Rossiter was a brilliant actor imho.

    I too loved Colditz, series was repeated in full on 'Yesterday' about 6 months ago. Recorded every episode and have still got them on my hard drive. Just can't bring myself to delete them, excellent TV <ok>
