While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.' -
I think this amounts to heresy but I don't find Only Fools and Horses that funny. I caught a couple of early episodes the other day as the bbc is showing them back to back in the afternoon. Although the acting is very good, the jokes and set ups are a bit dated, possibily we were as a nation less sophisticated then.Comment

I like fools and horses - there were some classics.
Favourite episode has to be the chandelier cleaning.
What about Allo Allo - I still find that very funny.Comment

I started to watch UFO again on the train and only got 20 minutes into the first episode. I remember it being really good indeed but it was dire.
I liked Dangerman....my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...
