Back from when you could call someone a ‘Spasmo’. 😂 “Think Once… Think Twice… Think… Don’t Drive Your Car On The Pavement”. I loved this show!

I am not a young one anymore and it still cracks me up!! Just as good as the '80's and I guess the classics just don't ever get old. Thank you for posting.

RIP Rik how can the people's poet be dead

I watched the repeats in early in 1985 when I was about 8 going on 9 years old. I was allowed to stay up late with my older brother to watch it as it was on past my 9pm bedtime, little did my mum know what we were watching lol

Downhill skier @ 13:10

This episode was pretty tame compared to others. Where do you think all of those "Family guy" cut scenes and segways came from. I'm not a fan of Ben Elton but this shows format was cutting edge at the time. Kind of the last original anti establishment thing ever made.

30:52 vyvyan shat himself

'Who's Rachel?'

You couldn't do Viv's story line at ALL today. smh. Also, the little guitar bit that's played as they push Neil into the job center (?) - I swear that doesn't exist on any version I've ever seen. Maybe it was cut do to music rights or something? Maybe I'm imaging it but I swear I've never heard that part before and I've seen these so many times I know almost every line - it's scary. LOL.

Vyvian is the OG Troon.

this was written by Ben Elton, the 3rd cousin of Musician Olivia Newton John😗

Wow i remember watching this here in the U.S. i think my ex-wife made me watch this while we were dating. Her family moved here from the U.K. i believe Surrey England.

This is just an observation and not meant to offend anyone. But does anyone else find this show is a lot patchier than we remember? I mean, when it works, it's genius. But there's a lot of stuff in there that falls pretty flat. Like Mike's non-sequitirs, the irrelevant fantasy sequences, or Alexei Sayle. I still love the show.
