David Coleman was hardly a bundle of laughs though, was he.cabbles said:
Sue Barker. She's so bloody bland, just chuckling away as Phil Tufnell gets over excited trying to do the charades round.mattaddick said:Can I start with 'A Question of Sport' - I once (30 years ago mind) thought this was unmissable. I now find it toe-curlingly unwatchable.
Still gives her something to do in between Wimbledon and Sports personality of the year0 -

It's a Knockout = Stuart Hall
Top of the pops =Jimmy saville Or DLT or Gary Glitter or Jonathan king etc
The Rolf Harris show = Rolf Harris
The sewers of London = I know this wasn't mainstream (more underground)
It's a knockout and Jeux sans frontieres were great to watch as a kid.
The Germans won JSF Most of the time.
Happy days, wouldn't work now thou, would it ?

It was a bit more of a serious quiz back then though, not a scripted load of shit acting as a stepping stone for has been sportsman to try to become shit celebrities.cabbles said:

Peep Show. Should have stopped after Series 4. I still think it's really funny, but just incredibly pointless and the storylines are getting more ridiculous.1

Doctor Who ( I only ever watched it when Tom Baker played the role)
Another shout for Eastenders
Most of the programmes I loved once are no longer on!0 -

Waterloo Road. It used to be ok, but gave up when the school moved to Scotland. Wtf !
Casualty & Holby. I gave up on them, when the hospital was blown up/caught fire twice within about 10 weeks.4 -

Moonlighting
I was nuts about this when it was first out. Saw it again a year or so back......oh dear.1 -
A few years back I saw Lost in Space for the first time since about 1969. Although I factored in I was years older, it really was shite. What made it worse was back in the day I was watching it on an old B&W telly, which added to the atmosphere, but seeing it properly for the first time revealed how bad the sets/props were - I think my primary school did a better job every christmas at the nativity play.2

It tears my soul to admit this, but Fawlty Towers. I bought a box set of Towers back in may, and found bits of it embarrassing. I thought maybe it was because I liked it when I was Young, so I tried it on the children, but they both walked out after a while, citing 'better things to do'. Sad.0

Top gear.

Not strictly a TV show but The Boat Race.
As a kid I thought it was a big national thing but as an adult you can see it for what it really is. A poncy race for super toffs with zero relevance for 99.99% of the population. Why this is a big TV event is completely beyond me.7 -

Sorry that I had to flag you, but in my opinion there is not a funnier character out there than Basil Fawlty.ken_shabby said:It tears my soul to admit this, but Fawlty Towers.

The Apprentice.
And another vote for A Q of S - the humour is forced now.

Bill & Ben. It was brilliant 50 years ago but to be frank I think it has become bloody infantile.
"Little weed". It simply doesn't say anything about the important issues.
That may change when Nigel Farage does his guest spot. Let's hear you "oooohhhh flobentop" now you wierdo.2 -
