They get funnier & funnier Greg. If you've only ever seen the first series, then you have so many great episodes and moments to look forward to :D

In a year long poll in the UK ran by the BBC last year, Only Fools and Horses was voted Britains Favourite Sitcom (All sitcoms had to be British). Whilst it was not my favourite choice, it is a very good sitcom and I agree with Jug Ears that it does get better as the series go on.

Why not give a brief synopsis of what it's about, Greg...that way we can decided whether to order it. We should get into this habit when posting on other Britcoms, just in case no one's heard of them.

In a nutshell, there are two brothers, Rodney ("what a plonker!!") and Delboy. They live in a flat with their Grandfather. None of them work legit and make a living out of selling and buying "merchandise" off and on the street. The show is really about their cons and the situations they get themselves in. Delboy is the older brother who is the shiftiest of all. The Grandfather watches 2 TV sets all day long and Rodney is the younger brother who isn't all there.
I have the first 3 Seasons of the show with more to come. I have to get watching the other two I have.
I noticed one thing right off the bat. 2 of their eppys are the smae as "AYBS?" eppys... "Big Brother" and "Christmas Crackers"....

This show is never broadcasted in Holland, I'm so happy that we can get BBC 1 and BBC 2 at our cable. So I've learned about OFAH, a great sitcom.

Greg, do you know On the Buses? A classic sitcom of the late 60's and early 70's.

No, never heard of it. I'll have to check it out if it ever gets out on Region 1.

Just watched half of Season 3 of OFAH !!!! Like Season 2 a little better...

My favourite is the christmas feature length special from 1989 - The Jolly Boys Outing. You'll laugh your socks off at this one Greg :lol:
