As a self proclaimed, British sitcom connoisseur, "To the Manor Born" is one sitcom I've never got around to watching.

I know an episode of it had one of the greatest British TV audience viewing figures of all time.

Maybe one day I'll get around to it.

I am more a working class sitcom fan, but I have watched The Good life and Ever decreasing circles and I love those two, but then again, those two are written by sitcom writing legends. So maybe this middle class sitcom will please me too.
