I love it!

I never watched the Vicar of Dibley first time round but I like it now.

I must admit I like the Vicar of Dibley as well.
There are also the classic sketches - Morcombe and Wise breakfast and the two Ronnie's "Four Candles". Brilliant x x

[:D]...I love all the old sitcoms, George and Mildred,Bless This House,The Liver Birds,Only Fools and Horses,Just Good Friends,Bread, Man about The House,Duty Free, One Foot in The Grave..Phew!!there's so many[:D]..

Liked the original Reggie P but not keen on the new one, knew before I was going to watch it that it would probably be a load of old twaddle but I was willing to give it a go[;)]..

They certainly don't make em like they did back then in the seventies/eighties.Crikey, I'm sounding like a right old goldie oldie reminising about the good old days[:D]...The only newer ones that I can think of at present that I like are Gavin and Stacey and My Family..

I'm going to watch that special tribute next week as well about Fawlty Towers[;)],that will be good no doubt[:)]

Skippy - the bar scene from Only Fools and Horses is my favourite as well! Hubby loves the chandalier one the best.

I find now though, that a lot of the programmes I loved in the 70's, 80's and 90's are now very dated and I don't find them funny anymore.

Having said that, I still find Bread funny, and One foot in the Grave.

Loved Dinner Ladies (but then I like Victoria Wood and Julie Walters anyway), and the Royle Family is brilliant.

[:D] I watched Bread yesterday on UK Gold - I still think it's fab after all these years!...there seems to have been loads of old re runs on just lately...i've particularly enjoyed watching Boon, Juliet Bravo and Auf Wiedersehen Pet [:D]

Never watched any of those three Tori!

Hated Dad's Army and Last of the Summer Wine as well!

Loved Ever Decreasing Circles - there are a few people I know of who could fit Martin's profile! To the Manor born was good when it was made, but not now - same with The Good Life.

Last of the summer wine is on nearly every day on UK Gold, and it does get quite boring at times! They've been showing 'Just good friends' as well lately - which I quite like...and Minder is quite good, although i'm not too keen on the new one with Shane Richie...

I liked Ever Decreasing Circles - it's amazing how many Martins there are in the world!

Dave calls me Margo, as in the Good Life!

I've never found Last of the Summer Wine funny. Just good friends was good at the time, but I doubt I would like it now.

Never liked Minder and couldn't be doing with The Sweeney either.

I like anything with John Thaw, although I haven't seen the Sweeney. I loved him in Morse, Kavanagh QC and my favourite is Goodnight Mr Tom.

Never watched any of those.

I used to love The Professionals (especially Lewis Collins) and I tend to watch anything with Martin Shaw. I loved Judge John Deed.
