The best episode ever is when Mr Peacock gets the keys to the executive bathroom. It literally makes me cry with laughter 😆 😂

I have come here to learn the lyrics of this theme tune because I *attempt* to sing it whenever I get in the lift but I always get the words wrong! 🎶

Man that takes me back, dad used to watch that show when I was a kid back in the 70s on the ABC, I remember hearing the sgt. mj. screaming shutup from the other end of the house

😂

I remember loving the opening song

I memorized the words to this by the time I had finished the first episode. I would sing it 24/7 and annoy the heck outta my parents…

Still to this day i will always love this show that my grandfather showed me.

Typical english humor,i adore ,i watched it, several times.

school tomorrow!

I was only around 7-8 years old when this was watched in our house. Drinking a cup of tea, with two biscuits, cake if we were lucky. My parents and two brothers in the living room. The music creates this empty, gnawing sensation in my stomach; a strange feeling of nostaliga. A fondness for the times that once were and a longing for them to return, knowing that they never will.

Lol they included the netherlands

Oh, I see you are having a curse and a kiddle… I will turn a blonde eye 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I was a kid in the 90s when PBS aired the late at night. I'm so thankful for PBS for bringing these wonderful British TV shows. Thank you Britain as well.

I will not have gossip in this jungle.....

😂😂😂

Brilliant t v gold Good old days not like the shit they serve nowadays E g naked whatever

Aww remember watching this with my Grandad After grandstand on bbc 1 when i was a child.

The David Croft comedies were and still are the best things to come from the BBC.

They don’t make em like this anymore 😁🤣🤐

They probably had a chick with a script singing nonsense off set 😂

PBS played the back off of this series.

Yes BBC was this cheap when it Came to themes.😂

The theme reminds me of the pink Floyd song money in the beginning.

Too bad the concluding credits with the iconic and oh-so-very-catchy lyrics aren't included! I'm currently making my way through the show for the 1st time, taking my time as I don't want it to end too soon (I'm also a big fan of Croft & Perry's You Rang, M'Lord, and while I'd rate Beeching slightly lower than that comedy classic, it's still a very enjoyable "comfort food" of a show).

I just noticed that you don't actually see Arthur Ridley running across the field at the end until 0:52, when he literally comes out of nowhere. He's just edited into frame!

I am 67 and want to join the new Home Guard. Search: ACT EXTRA CANTERBURY HOME GUARD

The shout in the end credits used to crack me up 😅

this goes so hard for no reason

I remember Me and My Mom saw this Show every Saturday Night on PBS. I also remember having a couple DVDs of the Show

Notwithstanding the lack of bang bangs, kind of minds one of the European football ultra scene. Innit. 😂

where the rest?

Is this banned now

this song is creepy Af

This show needs to be re-shown, and re-mastered, for the new generation. It shows the best of British comedy writing/acting talent at it's very best.

I've finally found the music.

This has me in stitches

2:17 :D

Why does Moira Foot at 0:44 look like a time-travelling Rashida Jones?

I like this one series specifically

Classic!!!

I went to see this show in the late 70s/80s at the Futurist Theater in Scarborough.... A very funny show. Afterwards I met most of the cast including Windsor Davis and Don Estelle...two of the nicest people you could ever meet...RIP to all of them and thank-you for the laughs

Well, well - a roll-call of the famous. Captain Cadbury (that troublemaker Prince), Doc Morrissey (Chest again), Young Mr Grace (You've all done very well), Arthur Perkins (Rentaghost), Denise Laroque (Communist Resistance) involved in the antics of a brass band!

Was this a forerunner of Brassed Off with Pete Postlethwaite? I remember the theme tune to Oh Happy Band, but not the programme itself.

Just in case you all don't know, the show is being repeated on Sky channel That's TV. I kid you not

Really fascinating, especially the dancing.

I would have loved to have done that stage dance with my male friends at college. Perhaps we should have done it for our leaving assemblies when we left. That little dance looks so fun to do, especially the part where they wave their legs and stomp afterwards.
