with the obvious exception of fool and horse and this be in my opinion david jason fine series . come straight after his tv debut on do not adjust your set . and these 13 episode reveal a mastery of comic timing not see since the old silent movie day . by comparison and porridge and open all hour and that awful series lucky man do not come close . i believe jason ban the series be repeat because it show him at his rawest . shame on him . a new generation deserve to enjoy this . the series actually flop in the rating but that be most likely because it be show against the brother which air on bbc at the same time and before vcr be commonplace . btw and i have only just notice that his long suffering assistant and spencer and be play by mark eden while alan bradley off coronation street . i be amaze he do not try to murder edgar briggs .
