The show is hilarious. But PC has pretty much reduced TV to toilet humour and crude sex jokes.

I saw that episode on repeat in 1980s on KOCE when they used show a lot of Brit comedies back in da day it wasn’t that bad

I think BBC are too much PC cowards

My husband grew up with these comedies. We actually have several on DVD. You can find them for order on the Internet.

The show was paid for by BBC license holders these programs do not belong to the BBC but to the people.

This is censorship by an unelected BBC administration and the sooner the British rid them selves of this antiquated and mediocre institution the better.
