Re: Whats your favorite British Sitcom.

Gotta give points Keeping Up Appearances. She is a hellofan actress. My friends and I use to know all the sisters names, let me see, theres Hyachinth, Rose, Violet, and Daisy, but I think there is another, the rich one.

Mind the wallpaper !" Hyachinth Bucket

I saw one show called Summer Wine, or something like that. I wish I could see more cause it looked funny also.

The rich sister is Violet, Lynne. She is the only one that we never get to see. Daisy and Rose live with Onslow and Daddy.

Hyacinth only ever speaks to Violet over the phone, just like her son Sheridan. Violet, is the sister that Hyacynyth tells everyone about and the fact that she has room for a pony.

Dont get me started on Last of the Summer wine however. Its been going 20 odd years and is a real waste of the tax payers money!

Yay! Someone else has heard of Blackadder!

My boyfriend and I actually met up over Father Ted. He was quoting it to someone else and I asked him to repeat.

I like an english show, but I don't know the name of it in english....its about a dentist and his wife (the wife played in one of the harry potter movies teaching the kids to fly their brooms) and their kids. Nick is the oldest and is so strange he cracks me up.

Does anyone know the name of this show`?

Re: Whats your favorite British Sitcom.

Are You Being Served is my all time favourite, I just loved all the puns on Mrs Slocombe's pussy! specially as we have a real store in Australia, long and well established, called Grace Brothers - and the Goulburn branch had a Mr Peacock!

I liked the Vicar of Dibley, too, but it went off a bit towards the end of the series.

Are You Being Served and the one with the Hyacynthe Bouquet (BUCKET) but when I was living there I became a huge EastEnders fan.

Re: Whats your favorite British Sitcom.

Okay, now I've got to check out this Father Ted. I think I saw some dvd's in the stores at Christmas, but I've never seen it on t.v. Way back I used to love Are you Being Served. Besides the pussy jokes I always wanted to see what colour her hair would be from week to week. I only saw a couple of episodes of Faulty Towers, but it seemed funny. And Mr. Bean was always good for a laugh.
