QUOTE(popchartfreak @ Jun 23 2013, 09:02 PM)  Hi, Upbringing prob does have an effect, you're prob right. Of the ones you mention I liked Sykes, also add in Fawlty Towers, My Wife Next Door, Rising Damp, Not In Front Of The Children, Up Pompeii, The Goodies and a couple of others. The American ones you mention are all awful, yes. Much better were I Love Lucy, Soap, Addams family, Bilko, Monkees, Munsters, I Dream Of Jeannie, Get Smart, Mary Tyler Moore Show, Munsters, MASH, Flintstones, mostly good scriptwriters and actors, mostly fantasy, not to mention lesser shows like Bewitched, My favourite Martian, Rhoda, Phyllis, The Odd Couple, The Partridge Family, F Troop, Chico And The Man, Barney Miller, Bob Newhart Show, Car 54 Where Are You...  I never got into Rising Damp. It's one of the few ITV sitcoms that would probably make a list of the all time greats but for some reason I just didn't like it. I enjoyed My Wife Next Door at the time but I'm not convinced it will have aged very well. The same applies to Not In Front Of The Children. Fawlty Towers remains a classic. The Goodies were great fun until they moved to ITV. |

I think I was biased cos I liked Hannah Gordon and the concept...

Number 62:
MR DIGBY DARLING (1969) 8.25m I had hope for a clip of this at least, but can't find one. It was repeated by Granada Plus, about 15 years back. Roland Digby's home life is less than perfect. His children run riot and his wife wants more. The only peace of mind Mr Digby enjoys is in his office at Rid-O-Rat pesticide manufacturers. At Rid-O-Rat he's every need is dealt with by his faithful P.A. Cast: Peter Jones as Roland Digby Sheila Hancock as Thelma Teesdale Beryl Cooke as Olive Norman Chappell as Chambers Brian Oulton as Mr Trumper Janet Brown as Joyce Peter Stephens as Mr Baiey Michael Bates as Norman Stanhope Roland Digby's home life is less than perfect. His children run riot and his wife wants more. The only peace of mind Mr Digby enjoys is in his office at Rid-O-Rat pesticide manufacturers. At Rid-O-Rat he's every need is dealt with by his faithful P.A. Miss Teesdale (Sheila Hancock). I would vote this sitcom, one of the worse of all time. It was very much like the awful "Take A Letter Mr Jones" (a 1981 other vehicle for John Inman, assisting Rula Lenska). Both were the worst possible programmes I've ever seen.

THE DUSTBINMEN (1969) 8.25m Equally garbage! Jack Rosenthal's comedy creation. One of the grittier sit-coms in many ways, The Dustbinmen provoked outrage from the bodies who wanted to clean up TV, but the viewers loved it. Why? Cast: Bryan Pringle as Cheese and Egg Trevor Bannister as Heavy Breathing Graham Haberfield as Winston Platt John Barrett as 'Smellie' Ibbotson Tim Wylton as Eric Paula Wilcox as Naomi Brian Wilde as Bloody Delilah |

What a great thread, Dave!
Keep it going, please! Would be nice to have the similar sort of list for the 70's and 80's... Dave, you missed No.70... This post has been edited by Andrey71: 25th June 2013, 06:02 PM |
