    In fairness the first few series were pretty good but once Grandad died it lost its way a bit. If Fawlty Towers was 3 series too short OFAH was 4 too long

    I never saw the appeal, it's the same joke repeated over like 200 episodes.

    I love Fawlty Towers and lots of other old classics, just not the pish ones...

    Whatever I uploaded you wouldn't think was funny which is fine. Toby also has a point - there was a hell of a lot of regurgitating the same old jokes. I didn't mind it but I would agree it was vastly over rated.

    I'd say Only Fools and Horses went on at least 10 years too long.

    One of the best ever was Porridge with Ronnie Barker.

    David Jason is another twat I cannot stand. Plays the same ****in role in everything he's in, useless ****.

    She's Japanese now. She's a very fast runner. Very nippy indeed.

    Sadly, I don't. The first few series were good but quality spiralled downhill in the late 80's-90's! The less said about the later ones the better! I cringe when people gush at the hilarity of the Batman & Robin scene! Me? I get embarrassed!

    Why has there never been a Brit sitcom called "Woefully Bad"?

    It would be a real time saver.
