Another funny trip down Memory Lane video... Most of the 1970s Situation Comedies 🎭 mentioned passed me by... I do have fond memories of enjoying “You’re only Young Twice” “Room Service” “Get Some In” and “The Squirrels.” Another forgotten comedy I enjoyed was “Twos Company” starring Donald Sinden and Elaine Stritch. Many of the 1980s Comedies I had heard of, but the two I enjoyed watching were “The River” and Dear John. Another forgotten Series from the 1980s, I enjoyed watching, was the Irish Comedy “Foreign Bodies.” Set in Northern Ireland, it is about the romance between a nurse from Dublin, and a Protestant car mechanic. It had a strong storyline, but I missed the last few episodes, and never found out how it ended...Thanks again Stu, and as always, looking forward to your next video 📹

"Queenies Castle" (1970-72) was filmed at Yorkshire TV on Kirkstall Rd, Leeds but was based in the now demolished Quarry Hill Flats (1938 - 1978) I was taken to the YTV studios around 1971 to watch a recording of an episode with my Mother (I was 11 at the time) it was a great experience that I remember to this day, I'm 64 now. . . . . . . Hilda Baker was a great comedy actress.

Wouldn’t have thought Queenies Castle was unknown. Its amusing. Love watching it on RU-vid. Dont know why The Wackers was criticised. Most comedy are cliches. And its not to only comedy that has ever sent up an area. Many also do that as well.

You have such an obvious affection for these old comedies, it's lovely to see. I'm not sure it's makes you the best judge of how good they are though! So when you say that Don't Drink the Water "isn't great", it makes me think it must be truly horrendous!

I was born in 93 there's just something about old British sitcoms that I love idk if it's the way they are filmed with the fuzzyness around the image quality or something else they just seem very comforting to me it's so strange to explain I just love them. I get a warm fuzzy feeling. A lot of these shows are older than me lol great video by the way. As a big fan of David Jason I didn't realise he was in those other comedies!

Brilliant selection! I remembered the majority of these programmes. Thanks for saying if they can be found on RU-vid. I’ve made a list of a few I’d like to see again. I’ve already watched an episode of The Wackers 😂. For its time I thought the stunt with the car and train in L for Lester was quite daring. Also nice to see it was Hilda Braid who also appeared in Citizen Smith and always called Robert Lindsay Foxy 😂

Glad you enjoyed it! It's surprising that the scene with the car on the train tracks in L for Lester isn't better known really as, like you say, it was quite daring and something that hadn't been seen in a sitcom before.

I enjoyed this foray into forgotten tv of the 70s and 80s. I didn't think The Wackers was that bad a series from what I remember of it, but I always enjoy Ken Jones' performances. He was great in The Squirrels too. "The accounts department of a tv rental company" was there ever more of a throwback to the 70s than that?! Talk about work expanding to fill the time allotted! I also liked Cowboys, it was brilliant. There were a few dodgy episodes but the chemistry between Roy Kinnear and Colin Welland was great. Lucky Feller was another one I enjoyed, it had a cosy feel to it. I think it was on around teatime and I used to look forward to it. Don't remember Room Service at all. There was another one with Matthew Kelly called Holding the Fort with Patricia Hodge. Do you remember Thick as Thieves from 1974 with John Thaw and Bob Hoskins as two ex-cons? Pat Ashton was the love interest...of both of them !!

@@QuoPaperPlane Brian (M Gambon) found out that Ralph (R Briers) was making up or exaggerating the stories and situations he was telling him. When Brian confronted him about it, he said he was very disappointed and felt let down. Ralph felt so bad that he decided to leave the country, I think, but Brian arrived in time to stop him and give him some heart felt speech, and I think they just smiled at each other and drove off in a car, or walked back to the house.

Stu, you missed Chintz. Easily the worst sitcom ever made. It was broadcast by ITV, focusing on the ups and downs of a boring amateur photographer and his suburban wife. Absolute shite. Fairly Secret Army - that was very well written and performed. Top acting. Shame it flopped...cock up on the commissioning front.
