One of my all time favorite albums. If all you know about Thunderclap Newman is ‘Something in the Air’, you need to give the entire album a full listen.

I loved all those shows. Another was The Fall And Rise Of Reginald Perrin.

CJ was my favorite character.

Yes, that one forgotten, along with others, I assume. They did have these airing in the states on PBS every Sunday evening. A time when families watched ‘refined’ British shows. They were very enjoyable when seen, even though there were times when one tended to scratch his head attempting to understand British humor. Fawlty Towers is yet another comedy which was failed to be mentioned. :-))
