[QUOTE="Barbara Fan, post: 99409, member: 21"] I caught some of this afternoons episodes as i was trying to warm myself up by the fire (it was so wet outside) It was great, I am loving Alex Gilroy all over again and his one liners and so sorry that he died last year, and his double act with Bet Also what a loss Hilda Ogden was when she left - she had a few great lines especially about Communists! There is a feud with Ken and Alf (ie) over lazy indpendent, councellors and Ken is getting his digs in - meanwhile poor Deirdrie is working in Alfs shop and caught in the middle Also enjoyed the (poisoned) Ivy scenes, Lynne Perrie was very good in the role and she isnt too happy with R Brian shacking up with another woman - meanwhile Gail is bringing up child no 2 Then there is Jack and Vera - a comedy act all on their own. The one thing the show totally lacks now is humour, banter (and actors who can act) yes the show had its wooden tops in the 80s - Susan Barlow for one, but the show is now top heavy with wooden tops under 35 and that doesnt bode well for the future [/QUOTE]
