I love this show, was thinking about it last night while watching an episode of Absolute Power with a Chris Langham cameo. Also love the nipples episode. Have been a fan of Carolines since Whose Line.

Really liked the show. It was on over here a couple of years ago and then vanished. If I had known how difficult it would be to see it again I would have recorded it and put in on DVDs. Thought the cast was great and particularly liked Tony, aka Cliff Parisi.

Out of nowhere, I am watching a few episodes put up on YouTube.

I remember finding this show quite funny but never watched all of the episodes. Rewatching them now, they're really quite funny.

Why oh why did 90s sitcoms go under the radar for DVD releases?

Please tell me some smart arse has all of them recorded?

Likewise - I'd read about this show but never actually seen it. The sponsored run episode has been the best so far.

Do I have to seduce you to retrieve these episodes?

Also - does anybody let the whole Langham thing spoil the show when they re-watch this?

It is, sadly, difficult to discount entirely, but I don't let it bother me too much. No more than with someone who's expressed extreme or somewhat eccentric opinions on politics or anything else.

I generally prefer to know little about people's private lives and judge their work on its own merits.

He downloaded some child pornography which, he said, was for research purposes for a TV comedy - an explanation which the appeal court ruled could not be rejected.

Also, the fact that he paid for the download with his own credit card suggests that he understood the transaction to be not only entirely legal but also beyond reproach from a moral perspective as he clearly had no worries about its being traced back to him.

Under the circumstances, I'm quite prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt and I certainly wouldn't let the case spoil my enjoyment of all the excellent work he has done in his capacity as an actor.

Fair comment to make.

Also - do you have the episodes recorded?

For some reason I don't remember the programme!
I've now watched a few clips and I feel it certainly warrants further viewing.
Mind you, there's no way I can excuse downloading child pornography.
Comedy research?
Since when was child pornography ever a laughing matter?
It's definitely tainted anything he has been involved with in my eyes but I'll try to watch without any bias in mind.

I loved this show. I think Langham was naive but I don't think he's a monster so I'd happily watch this any day.
