Just why are ITV so BAD at sitcoms ?

Well I think the last good ITV sitcom was Rising Damp (1970s), but even that was IRRITATING BEYOND BELIEF!! <grr>

BTW, >> 256 channels and nothing on << My thoughts exactly!!

Now that Barbara is on in the afternoon's, we get Sherrie Hewson on two consecutive programs, as she's in Crossroads as well!

My fave comedies are:

Father Ted (by the way, I asked Ardal O'Hanlon for a piggy back the other week)
Vicar of Dibley
Babes in the Wood
Banzai
The Royle Family

I wondered what the hell this was this afternoon!!

I was flicking around and thought that it was Crossroads, only to see this man asking Sherrie to marry her, I was totally baffled!
Thank you for clearing this up!
