There are some really obscure ones in this post. For me as a kid at school:The Young Ones, followed by Black Adder.Any comedy around that time I guess.
Nobody has mentioned Green Wing yet.
Cold Feet was great.
Was never really into Friends but enjoy the odd one now.
Ha just remembered Blakes 7 ;that was brill!
ITV4 are doing reruns of The Sweeney now. That was proper policing...none of this community support nonsense "Excuse me could you refrain from using that language"
"Shut it you slag" was much more to the point. I'd have much more respect for the rozzas if they talked to me like that :D :D ;D
