I think the best ITV sitcom was 'Only when I laugh', the hospital one. �It had James Bowlam and Richard Wilson in it from what I remember. �

I think Rising Damp was a classic, what about other sitcoms such as Man About the House, Some Mothers do 'ave Em, what do you think of these?

My parents like Mind Your Language!

I liked Chalk that was on BBC ONE a few years ago.

It was just a completely mockery of the schools in the UK but so accurate.

They were making another series but loads of teachers complained and they either didn't show it or stopped production. Its never been shown anywhere else, probably for the same reason.

Shame, some people just don't get humour do they?
