Has anyone seen this?

It's such a good show, my joint favourite sitcom with Absolutely Fabulous

It's kind of repetitive after a while.

It's funny, but it's like a sketch show. Every episode is a variation on the same punchlines.

The neighbour woman spills her tea/breaks a cup. She sings at the other neighbour. She's embarrassed by her scruffy sister etc etc.

It is funny though.

It's like the best British 90's show. I could watch it over and over and howl every single episode

Of course I'm a connoisseur of the British sitcom.

It's good, but it's not even the best sitcom written by Roy Clarke, who also wrote Last of the Summer wine and Open all hours.

But Hyacinth is maybe the greatest female lead character of all British sitcoms.

I only watch that for Mrs Warboys the legend.

Not keen on the "surreal" element of it.

It's so good.

I never watched it when it first on TV, but I bought the boxset about 3 years ago, and it makes my belly hurt laughing. It's a masterpiece.

One Foot in the Grave is clever, weird and hilarious all at once.

It's my sister Violet! She's the one with the Mercedes, swimming pool, and room for a pony.
