'Great sitcoms are missing from our TV screens and our lives - we need them in these times'

Even if "we're all doomed" under the Tories, as Dad's Army's Pte Frazer would say, shows like George And Mildred, Are You Being Served?, Robin's Nest and Three's Company still make us laugh.

Siobhan McNally, The Mirror, 24th January 2024

Robin's Nest (Thames) is along the same lines, except that the young couple run a restaurant and are not married. Since they behave exactly as if they are, the series scarcely deserves its reputation for daring, but let's pretend that everything is as naughty as it should be. [...] Often groan-provoking, it has the occasional stroke of invention to repay your time.

Clive James, The Observer, 13th February 1977
