Definitely channels the Goons, Goodies and Python but with added Scottishness(?). Surely one of the most underrated series ever?martinbehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17778693213018671201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272008603641292743.post-80793524770558892302013-02-12T03:38:08.336+00:002013-02-12T03:38:08.336+00:00:( One of the few times i am frustraited living in...:( One of the few times i am frustraited living in australia. Ill need to wait i think until my next trip overseas. Still am of the firm beleif that UK humour is by far the best in the world.

Mr Don and Mr George remain in my VHS collection but these tapes won't last forever. I think we should start a movement to get them transferred onto DVD, there must be enough people out there to make it financially viable.<br /><br />I have also recently purchased the Chance in a Million series n DVD - cracking stuff!<br /><br />PPP, Preston, EnglandAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272008603641292743.post-72419395594670562892011-02-19T21:38:14.274+00:002011-02-19T21:38:14.274+00:00It is indeed wonderful that this largely forgotten...It is indeed wonderful that this largely forgotten gem has been placed on YouTube, the humour and wordplay was far ahead of its time and - in my view - was much sharper than Father Ted in my view. My pre-recorded VHS tape has worn over the years, but the humour hasn't - it's just as good now as it ever was, I wish they'd release this on DVD as they did with the complete Absolutely series...sigh.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272008603641292743.post-17292788095525193672010-05-19T11:24:36.058+01:002010-05-19T11:24:36.058+01:00I too was thrilled to see Mr D & Mr G had reap...I too was thrilled to see Mr D & Mr G had reappeared. Although never a fan of Absolutely, this spin-off became a firm favourite for its short life. Perhaps because it had just enough realism and believability to draw me in. Sitcoms /sketch shows that are purely ridiculous / silly / surreal never quite work for me, however funny they may be.<br /><br />For years I'd used the phrase "Correct me if I'm incorrect", but had forgotten where I'd picked it up.
