1—Howerd was great, best watched in Up Pompeii.

2-I know Blackadder and Fawlty were very popular, I wasn’t aware the others were. I love Rising Damp. One of the UK greats.

3—Lear ironically had to TONE DOWN the original when he made the US version of Till Death Us Do Part, need I tell you the remake, lol.

4—The two Steptoe films (and actually most of the sitcom film versions of the 70’s) are actually good. I’d watch them.

5—Good Neighbours was The Good Life in the UK.

Maybe I’ll give the Steptoe a chance. This person was so adamant it wasn’t up to snuff.
