Because because it was broadcast before I was born and not really repeated during the late-1980s or mid-90s, I haven't seen a single episode of On the Buses, nor shows such as Rising Damp, Till Death Us Do Part, or Are You Being Served?, and I haven't seen any of the On the Buses films either. I'm not sure whether it's something I'd enjoy, but I am prepared to give it a chance.

As for Nos,Im always amazed when people say they have'nt watched stuff I grew up with,all the major sitcoms of the 70's are pretty much ingrained in my memories as a child,I forget that there is probably a 20 to 30n years gap in some of are ages,saying that i would'nt watch half the bollocks that passes it self off as TV today,but thats because im a miserable old git.

I think there is a lot of good tv about it's just knowing what it is. Personally i don't think there has been a decent British comedy since The League of Gentleman although that might be because the ones i've tried haven't impressed at all. Same goes for British tv in general especially drama. As mentioned on here numerous times i really enjoyed The Night Manager earlier on this year as well as War and Peace which made me finally decide to check out Downton Abbey (Yes i noticed your tiny little line earlier ) and i'm really pleased i did as i'm now half way through the second series and it's absolutely outstanding. Drama, humour, thrills and it's so well written. Julian Fellowes has that knack that i've only seen from Russell T Davies previously, in that he can create a fully rounded character with just two lines of dialogue. If Nos is reading this he should definitely give it a go as i'm sure he'd like it. That complete box set on current viewing is easily the best tv i've bought this year. Yet like you, in my ignorance i've always dissed it as a series. |

I really like Peep show, IT crowd and Inbetweeners out of recent comedies but can't think of much else. ( some of Drifters is funny ,but it's a bit hit and miss.) Oh and Mighty Boosh was after League and i really liked that too.

Did you ever watch Black Mirror Dem, one of the only recent drama series i've taken to, they are all individual stories but well worth watching.

They were both a few years ago now and yes i forgot about them. Same goes for the excellent Misfits but that was comedy drama really.
