    I get that Corros is a snide Kouros but what the f**k is Can Can Man supposed to be?

    I bought some Denzel( Diesel) from Home Bargains the other month.

    Wish I hadn't, reeks like furniture polish.

    One Foot in the Grave is one of the worst programmes ever made

    Just be thankful that he probably stopped reading after that and didn't notice Gimme Gimme Gimme as a result. <whistle>

    In no particular order:

    Fawlty Towers
    One Foot in the Grave
    Red Dwarf
    Allo Allo
    Only Fools and Horses
    The Simpsons (in the earlier days - post 2000 it has been ****)
    Blackadder 2nd and 3rd, (1st and 4th were crap)

    I actually liked early My Family, (when Nick/Kris Marshall was in it). But I really only ever watched it for Daniela Denby-Ashe.

    I find most modern 'comedy' to be bland, sanitized, patronising codswallop aimed at the boring PC society we've become.

    I dunno it had a bit of a pic of a JPG that stripy t shirt on the packaging. FFS I've looked at the packaging again now it sez eau de toilette. No wonder Julian at work was been very helpful.

    No but I've embraced their culture unlike many :D

    Must admit my picks give out a certain vibe.

    Blackadder Goes Forth was brilliant, how do you not like it if you like the others?

    You've paid good money for that son, don't let it go to waste.

    My advice would be that if it's a bit metro sexual don't wear it at work. Save it for when you take your lass out

    She'll think you've gone all modern and sensitive, some women like that.

    All depends whether your lass likes that sort of thing.

    Her words were " you've bought a bottle of womens perfume, it stinks anyway. Are you ever going to grow up- I'm off to bed".

    I'm wearing it all the time now bollocks to her.

    Blackadder 2nd with Miranda Richardson was just brilliant. The 3rd was almost as good, but for some reason I just didn't like the brashness of Forth. I know everyone raves about it but it didn't seem to fit as well as the previous two series. Maybe I should re-watch it after all these years and see if my opinion has changed.

    To me its just the same old crap that relies on "I don't believe it" catch phrase. I just can't stand it. I always thought it was for the older generation my dad loves it and he's 65.

    Not a sitcom but Monkey Dust was brilliant
