Great show. Flasheart has to be one of the greatest cameo characters of all time!

Bollocks is it over-rated!  It's comic genius (first series aside...it hadn't really hit its stride by that point).

That scene with flashheart from BA II was alledgedly mostly ad libbed...the other cast didnt know what he was going to do.

I agree, one of the best comedy series ever and flashheart, one the of best cameo parts ever.

Just bought the complete set from Lovefilm at cutprice!  It IS the best, and the last episode was tragi-comedy of absolute brilliance.

He reminds me of the other Character Chris Barrie played in Red Dwarf. I forget his name but recall him saying, "Smoke me a kipper, skipper. I'll be back for breakfast."

Skipper.

Cancel the state funeral, tell the king to stop blubbing, Flash is not dead! I simply ran out of juice! And before five hundred girls all go 'oh, what's the point in living any more?' I'm talking about petrol! Woof! Send someone along to pick me up. General Melchett's driver will do, she hangs round with a big knob so she'll be used to a fellow like me. Woof! "

Talking of "comedy"-I cant believe they've brought back the truly dire "My Family" for yet another turgid series.

Safe family viewing. Though I'm not sure I know anyone who actually watched My Family.

Glad to see they are finally pensioning off Last of the Summer Wine. That has been broadcasting since the year of my birth (1973), which deserves some credit! But lets be honest, its only watched by the very old and under 10's. And half the cast are dead.

I am a dozy bugger. It took me until a few years ago to realise that Foggy was played by the same person who played Barrowclough in Porridge (Brian Wilde)!

I liked the early series' because the I had a thing for the ex-Eastenders bird and found the BT advert and Love Actually bloke really good. I haven't watched it in what must me 5 years or something in my defence.

My Family was alright in the early days, with Nick as the best character. When it all changed it lost its appeal.

My Family has never been 'alright'. It's always been the sort lowest denominator comedy that the beeb think they've got to push out for family viewing for some reason. Family viewing doesn't have to mean shit, as Doctor Who has shown.
