,,,and wot's wrong with LOTSW, alter name-sake ?
I'm not keen on the newer series, preferring the series when all the cast of 3 were the originals, but as a genteel tale of 3 older men growing old disgracefully (in a polite and somewhat harmless way), it cannot be beat ! No bad language, virtually zero violence (apart from Compo getting the mandatory handbag flogging from Nora Batty)...comedy of a much more gentler age, but no less funny, IMHO.
And that Nora Batty...phwoooar !
Almost as good as Nurse Gladys (Open All Hours...which I forgot to add)
Oh..and I also forgot to add "Hi-Di-Hi".
