    A superb line from Nora the other day talking of Barry 'No good comes from promotion They start turning their nose up at salad cream and want French dressing' Simply superb:18:

    Goodbye Compo

    I felt saying Nora had gone to Australia didn't fit. I know she had family but you wouldn't get her on a plane to some foreign land How come Tom lives in the wooden Hut in the allotment but he was living in Compos house with Mrs Avery but now Alvin lives there. Did Compo rent?

    What's your favourite episode?

    I'm watching the episodes on Gold and had forgotten these ones specifically because I thought the Mrs Avery /Babs/Tom trio wasn't that great. I remember reading in the book that rj agreed with that Question is Wikipedia said babs left after just 3 episodes as she was that unpopular. Unpopular...

    What's your favourite episode?

    I might change my mind but it's either the one where Howard tries to hypnotise Pearl and Foggy gets hypnotised himself or the one where marina throws away her Tom Cruise photos that was on the other day The rant from Howard is priceless Clegg 'anyway he's not on his own his got a woman he's...

    There goes the groom?

    Thank you

    There goes the groom?

    Shows Foggy at the start being carried but then only feet. Why was he only written such a small part? Had he passed away by then?

    Fading into the Limelight - Peter Sallis

    Are they the only two worth reading Barmpot?

    New episodes of Goodnight Sweetheart and KUP (Young Hyacinth)

    Wasn't a fan of goodnight when was younger so didn't watch. Found Kepping up appearances good back in the day. The young Hyacinth had the mannerisms and voice but it was more like a drama. Not funny at all in my opinion

    Foggy

    Not at all my friend I just never looked for it. Now I know I'll watch out for it I never thought I'd say this but having watched all the series now the Russ Abbott last 2 series seem rushed and not quite as great as I first thought

    Foggy

    Which comes across on screen? Are we talking subtle bits I know foggy was Conservative and theres a few scenes where compo shouts I bet he votes Tory -when someone drives past ignoring them I also read that Brian wasn't into political correctness (which I agree with him there) but didn't...

    Hobdyke special

    Luckily caught it on UK. Gold on Friday first time I'd ever seen it

    Foggy?

    Having watched them all now I have to say it was best when Foggy was in it. 'Here we go again' says compo when Foggy says 'they're not proper insects like in the jungle I wasn't that keen on tom Owen and the Mrs avery daughter was dreadfully out of sync with the show but Alan Bell admitted that...

    Foggy?

    Is he lying about absolutely everything? Was he ever in Burma? I remember Compo saying he was a sign writer who never left England?

    Foggy

    I originally believed Hobbo was the best there has been but watching Foggy changed my mind. He's outstanding

    Foggy

    Nothing makes me laugh more than Edie putting that posh accent on and 'drink your coffee':29:

    Foggy

    Cant really get into the Seymour ones. Nowhere near as funny as foggy. I'll take my original comments back, Foggy is much better than Hobby. Superb to watch

    Foggy

    Just watching the one when Howard and Pearl enter. Pearl has a very strange accent indeed. Can't believe how young marina looks too but then again it's 30 yrs old

    Foggy

    Just started watching series when Foggy came in it. I notice Ivy was extremely aggressive always shouting and Nora too was the same especially with Wally. They mellowed over time. Some very funny episodes. Think the ones with foggy now the best ones

    Still Open All Hours?

    The original was hilarious not sure about the remake. It's gentle but not laugh out loud funny. Last night was one of the better episodes with the 4 women chatting and reminded me of LOTSW. They seem to have turned Gastric into Compo Which begs the question why get rid of LOTSW in the first...

    Series 30 & 31

    Glad I got the book it's opened my eyes to the beauty of the writing. I took it for granted before but when you watch closely you appreciate how great it is. I've just watched the one in which Norman Wisdom and the police end up the same lake. The foggy one in which he has a bleeper 'Barry...
