I can never thank them enough for the Young Ones and Benny Hill. Over here we're also paying for tons of stuff we dislike or find offensive. Didn't some try to get Teletubbies banned for 'gheying up' our little folks.

They have made a lot of good stuff but a lot of it was before woke culture tried to eliminate fun. They even ruined Alan Partridge as Steve Coogan like them went up his own arse. I still cannot believe a series of Alan Partridge was not very funny.

What makes characters like Alf Garnett or Alan Partridge or Basil Fawlty or Rik funny is that they are at times cringy, but there is also a truth in those characters too. People do have snobbery, they do have quirks, they do have views that you wince at, but they are just human and don't do genuinely evil things.

Rik was a parody of hypocritical woke culture way before his time.

Do you get Only Fools and Horses and Blackadder over there Spic ? How did they go down.

I was a bit young to see Benny Hill but the Young Ones I was allowed to watch early 80s – many in my class at school weren’t !

I happened to catch an episode again a couple of years ago – it dates very badly !

But legendary TV which will long be remembered – amazing looking back at who guest appeared in it and what they’ve gone on to be.

Man like Mobeen is a good comedy series on BBC. Well worth the license fee not to see adverts.

Dowton abbey was very good. Haven’t seen the movie yet but want to.
