Probably a bit high brow for your tastes I'd say mate.
or maybe prior to sky showing repeats it was not available when it first came out in ireland....and the fact when i was younger I had better things to be doing than watching shit brit shows ;)

Liked Blackadder II the best. For something almost to match it, Black Books.

Fools and Horse is great and I always watch it but it is let down occasionally by cringeworthy writing: big example in the episode in Spain when Rodney has won an Under 14 painting competition.

Rodney: Excuse the bad language, Cass.

Casandra: What bad language?

Rodney: GET OUT HERE NOW YOU DIPSTICK, I'M GONNA KILL YOU!

A lot of shows i missed when the first came out, movies as well , and they are dated in a lot of cases.
I hear people speak about things like star wars, blackadder and a whole host of stuff and I view it as in the same way young kids are getting into the old punk music, its like if you were not watching or listening when it first happened you dont get the same impact...if you get my point.
