Yes agree about Green Wing, what little I could bear watching of it, a totally contrived unsitcom like sitcom full of trendy stupidness, a sort of updated Goodies for the 90s/naughties. Was the start of the slippery slope for sitcoms as all manner of crap seemed to follow soon after. :(

Maybe someone mentioned this, but Green Wing it is said was commissioned as a sitcom, but they wanted to make a sketch show, so they made its as little of a sitcom as they could and just sort of threaded the sketches together... well the first series at least.

Roy Clarke...he makes a lot of marmite...

I want to smash my TV in whenever Keeping Up Appearances comes on.

Never liked Open All Hours despite loving a lot of the work of Messrs Barker & Jason.

Last Of The Summer Wine makes me want to gauge my own eyes out.
