    On the Buses. As repeated on daytime ITV.
     I remember watching this in the ‘70s, I knew no better then. Nowadays watching it, it is so annoying and awful it actually makes watching it enjoyable like picking a painful spot.

    Bit shallow but i like Lucy  ( think  that's her name in the sit com) . You are right , early episodes were better.

    Started to go down hill when Tim Vine left

    Then it got even worse when Lee and Lucy actually got togther as 1 of the big funny things about it was that Lee wanted her but could never get her

    I'm watching A Bless This House Film on Talking Pictures TV. Huh Huh Huh Huh.
    Brilliant, his Mrs can't have a market stall because "who is gonna do the cooking" ?

    Stath Lets Flats was my favourite UK sitcom of last year. Joe Pera Talks With You best US one. Both feature an excellent lovable loser protagonist

    Still game is hilarious. My Glaswegian colleague leant it to me... The one with the big fella who can't drink midori had me in tears
