I have watched this show for years . I never get tired of it . Funniest actors ever . I miss Compo but the last years were really good. They don't make programs like this anymore ; more's the shame .
This comedy helps makes growing older easier at 65 living in a small village in Spain the characters are the same except they speak Spanish. Ha Ha Ha. I Love living in a small village. I have great friends. It's like the Wind and the Willow's.
I love this show so much! It always lifts my spirits and puts a Smile on my face. The characters are so unique and the humor is fun! Definitely the best of the summer wine 🍷!
I think there is a lot to offer even after Compo was gone. Alvin, Billy and Enthistle were a breath of fresh air that never diminished Compo's contributions. I am fortunate to own all episodes and watch them nearly every night. Great acting and warm human interactions. Something we no longer seem to cherish.
I truly love Frank Thornton. He was just as good in LOTSW as he was playing Captain Stephen Peacock in Are You Being Served and Grace & Favour. R.I.P, Mr. Thornton.
Last of the Summer Wine is such an entertaining British comedy sitcom. Who would think of such creative adventures for seniors in a rural community. I enjoy all British comedy sitcoms 😃😃😂😂😂💝💝💝💝💝
Now that I'm becoming more familiar with ...British comedy,...I like it a lot and find it entertaining,.I'm getting to know most of the stars by face and names. Everyday I discover new series that I find funny ...specially now that I'm older at seventy ,...my taste has changed a lot....I never knew there was so many different comedies. Too bad a lot of the stars are dead....may they R.I.P.
Roy Clarke is a genius writer, so obvious in Last of the Summer Wines and Keeping up Appearances. Also, the Directors, Camera men and production team is the finest in showing the talent of such great actors. When viewing the series I was enthralled in the film - a 3D glasses was not needed. I really enjoyed the series on public TV in USA until it stopped then technology (phone) now gives me the pleasure of viewing for free via RU-vid, most of the series ! 😊💝😎
What a wonderful vehicle for the elder statesman n women of British stage and screen. I miss the ones who passed, and pray for those who are left! And thank them all!
The scenes with the coppers are some of my favorites, especially how sometimes it's totally disconnected from the plot, like the little comic strips in the page margins of Mad Magazine
Last of the summer wine is the best. Roy Clarke is a genious. it was absolutely brilliant... No sex, violence or any other garbage. just pure entertainment and joy. Try finding anything even close these days... lol
It is nice to see an episode with Frank Thornton in it from ‘Are You Being Served?’ and also with Josephine Tewson from ‘Keeping Up Appearances’ as well. First time I've seen Josephine Tewson in this series.
I feel like I've watched these a million times and I still get caught unawares 15:25 and laugh out loud. And poor Howard, why can't he have a girlfriend that seems quite platonic without Pearl acting like a sadist? Great acting and writing. Thank you. 😂
God, how I would love to be able to live my old days like that with a bunch of funny fools like that. But the communists are comimg and future looks grim:;)
I keep watching this comedy series even though it is no longer on TV. It is so funny. It would be great to see a series based on certain people's behaviour in the 21st century. However, the men should get their own back on the women . For example, a Howard type could grab "Pearl's" hand after being pushed around by Pearl.
Top drawer, soft gentle comedy. Should have ended it when Compo died or when foggy left for the last time. It just got cringe worthy and painful to watch for me after that. Funny how in the first series with Blamire, the characters were crude, swore and Clegg was not the nervous wreck who feared women as you saw a few series in.
Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"
My dad used to watch this and Dad's Army and was highly amused by both.. Perhaps you needed to be his generation to find them funny. Last of the Summer Wine always struck me as a sort of skip for worn out, clapped out, shagged out actors who simply did not know when to call it a day.
