As a social worker for social services older adults I cannot stress the importance of this enough. But even more if you have been conned by these people (and some of them are very very convincing) tell someone. It may be too late for you but it may save someone down the line. There is no shame...

Shall I give you the boring answer? It changed when culture became all about immediate gratification - perhaps late 90’s onwards. People don’t feel they have the time to spend to wait for the tea to brew hence the uptake in coffee for the immediate kick. With this leads to less people going to...

Interesting concept and fun to fantasise about - agree it shouldn’t be remade. I’ve said why in other posts. However there may be no “lost episodes” but I feel there’s gaps that could be expanded on Immediately coming to mind is Foggy’s leaving. The episode where he leaves carried out feet...

Honestly my favourite is of course elegy for fallen wellys since it is so poignant and a more than adequate tribute to his friend. But one line cleggy utters in the first series, I can’t remember the episode title off hand, the one where the opening scenes are with the driving simulator with...

The dvd I go back to the most is series 5 and 6. Cannot decide which episodes are the best though. It’s like full steam behind and earnshaw strikes again versus in the service of humanity and the odd dog men. Honestly I think writing and acting combines perfectly in these series. Closely...

It’s not necessarily a performance but I love the line in the guest house caper - or similar title. Where they all go to Scarborough and wally is asked what he wants to do and Wally wants to see the lifeboat. The scene makes me howl with laughter

I’ve not got the boxed set but I have every series in a box set - if that makes sense? I bought them as and when they came out in the uk. As a result of having them for so long I’ve watched them many times although only watched all the way through only twice. I tend to get around the time of...

I love Jurassic no parking. Or I think it’s called getting Barry up in the world - I think Seymour is trying to gear Barry to a promotion?

What’s the shiny glow episode? When he gets it on his face and it reacts. Cracks me up every time!

Personally I’m glad it finished when it did and honestly think it should’ve finished earlier. Not because I dislike the later years at all but mainly the effect of producing the show in a more PC time I think was to the detriment of the show and if created today there is no way some of the...

Wasn't Rasputin from Chesterfield? I always liked Upper Middlethong as a place they mention often

The plough twice?

I think it's 'a kink in foggy's niblick' they find a trunk with the initials C O D to which he says corporal Oliver dewhurst. And Walter being the generally accepted first name. I'm thinking the one where they decide to walk dogs

Was Foggy's first name ever sorted out? I mean that at least two different first names are mentioned. Was this just an oversight in script writing?

Oh definitely foggy. I’m useless with women (and my fiancé will confirm that) I bore people with stories and am completely clueless to that fact. Plus I’m tall

Great news I hope they continue in the same vein as last series I much prefer the one off monster of the week type episodes that are loosely tied together over what they tried previously

Thanks guys. What a warm welcome. As for locations I’ve been looking on good old streetview to see some streets and house but really do want to see some up close and probably hav a cuppa at Ivy’s
