10 Forgotten British TV Sitcoms of the 70s

10 forgotten British television sitcoms from the 1970s. How many will you remember?
In today’s Stuview TV video, I’m going to delve back into the world of British television from the 70s, in particular the world of comedy. The sitcom genre was perhaps at the height of its popularity in the seventies and we could find something to laugh along to pretty much every night of the week.
Along with classics which we remember with reverence today, such as Porridge, Dad’s Army and Fawlty Towers, there are many more which are hardly mentioned at all these days. They are the forgotten sitcoms and I’ve picked ten of these to take a look at today. I’ll also let you know where you can watch these neglected comedies.
00:17 The Wackers with Ken Jones
02:17 Queenie's Castle with Diana Dors
03:39 Not On Your Nellie with Hylda Baker
05:24 Don't Drink the Water with Stephen Lewis
06:48 Down the 'Gate with Reg Varney
07:43 Dear Mother...Love Albert with Rodney Bewes
09:00 Odd Man Out with John Inman
09:58 Casanova '73 with Leslie Phillips
11:43 Whoops Baghdad with Frankie Howerd
12:46 Two in Clover with Sid James

I really enjoyed this video. Not on your Nellie was a favourite as it brought Hilda Baker into my life. I was a boy of 4 and Hilda had moved to London to film this series. I lived in Bexley Village in South East London and Hilda had moved nearby. I would see her while out with my mum on her daily shopping trips. She always made a huge fuss of me and spent time chatting with my mum and all the other locals. She was so kind to me and my mum and when she moved away we lost touch and I missed her very much. Lovely woman.

[@stuviewtv]

Oh wow, that's absolutely fantastic. It's always nice to hear when stars are lovely in real life.

Frankie Howard, the only man that can have me in stitches with just a look! Comedy bones, I miss him.

[@stuviewtv]

A true comedy great.

[@Benjiesbeenbetter.]

I've got a DVD that was free with a newspaper of the Carry On Christmas TV show from 1969(?). It's very dated now and I'm not sure it ever seemed as funny as the films. But Frankie Howerd is in a sketch with Hattie Jacques as the Robert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett which is hilarious. Have you ever seen "The House in Nightmare Park" with Howerd and Ray Miland?

[@ilanamillion8942]

He actually did a short-lived sitcom which was filmed here in Canada. I remember watching it but can't recall the details.

[@Pierre61]

Wasn't "All gas and gaiters" around this time? I was a very Derek Nimmo kind of kid so I particularly enjoyed being bathed in the cathode ray light and cuddling the dog on the floor watching that. The moon landings and sit coms are such strong memories.

[@acrodave9287]

I think All Gas and Gaitors had a spin off, Oh Brother, also starring Derek Nimmo.

While I grew up in the later part of the 60s_70s the only one of these Obscure COMEDIES I do remember seeing was NOT ON YOUR NELLIE with the great Hilda Baker

[@Iluvthe1960s]

Casanova 73 gave a silly chat up line to us teenagers in the 70’s his patting his sports car and saying ‘like her she’s all mine’ led to us doing it to the one guy in our group who owned a car except his was a £50 Triumph Herald and we had zero success. I’d forgotten all about that thanks for the memories

[@saintetienne755]

This was fantastic - remember half, not all but *Hilda Baker*, what a fantastic actress, she was the female Les Dawson for me - will definitely watch Not on your Nellie.

[@stuviewtv]

She was a real treasure.

[@Julie-sm7sp]

Well I'm glad that wasn't a quiz stu, I only remembered a couple of them 😂 shame some of them weren't very popular especially as they feature some of the best sitcom actors, another interesting video stu, many thanks 🙂

[@stuviewtv]

Yes, you're right there Julie - some absolutely fantastic comedy actors in these sitcoms. Makes it all the more surprising when they become forgotten over time. Thanks again for watching!

[@Julie-sm7sp]

@stuviewtv The days sitcoms actually made you laugh, thanks again for the memories stu 🙂

[@Richard-fv7rq]

Some of those looked great. Born in 69' I was too young for these so don't remember them at all. Some of the characters went onto other projects of course so the likes of Sid James (wawawawawawawawa) were familiar faces.

[@stingray4real]

Bill Dean played the barman in The Wackers. He was in the sitcom Oh No, It's Selwyn Froggitt and played grumpy Harry Cross in the soap Brookside.

[@robertduncan6361]

Thank you Stu, thoroughly enjoyed this. Two in clover was a favourite and of timeless quality. How about "Moody & Peg" which had the most beautiful 'earworm' title tune ever, talking of beauty, a short scene with 'Peg' wearing stockings & suspenders that was a key 70's moment for me !. I've not met anyone who remembers "The good guys" with Nigel Havers & Keith Barron. Though of the early 1980's and not a laugh a minute, it was great acting ; two charactors who seemed unwittingly to be forced into situations where they solved crimes...seemingly all filmed around Richmond, Surrey. I've never known it to have been repeated.

[@stuviewtv]

Glad you enjoyed the video. Many thanks for the comedy suggestions too. Great picks!

[@michellefalleur960]

I missed those ones, never saw them, they sound good

[@stingray4real]

Romany Jones starred James Beck (Dad's Army) Jo Rowbottom, Arthur Millard and Queenie Watts. James Beck died suddenly before the sitcom was broadcast.

[@michellefalleur960]

Yes, I've seen that one, wasn't that great in my opinion, but I love James Beck ❤️

[@cdub5033]

me too, never heard of the others, dad must not have liked them & chose what we watched. I was under 10 & had no influence.

[@Benjiesbeenbetter.]

Apart from those two, I can vaguely remember that some of the others existed. Mostly for negative reasons. I know my father never thought Not on your Nellie was as good as Nearest and Dearest, and would _always_ say so, but we watched it as my mother was a big fan of Hylda, who was always worth watching.

[@2002barneyf]

One of my favourite reads is 'Radio Times Guide to TV Comedy' and whilst I don't remember watching many of these, the titles of most are known to me. As someone else has commented, Ken Jones was in 'The Squirrels' which had a great cast and was actually quite funny. Keep up the good work as your vids often bring a smile to my face.

[@stuviewtv]

Many thanks. The Radio Times Guide to TV Comedy is one of my favourite reads too. It's indispensable for research purposes.

One of my favourite books, too.

On the buses is certainly not forgotten ! I was not alive when the show finished yet I've still got multiple series on DVD Apparently the series was hated by toffee nosed critics' but loved by the ordinary folk of the UK

Hello Stu🙋‍♀️ Thank you for an entertaining video📹 of 1970s Situation 🎭 Comedies. There are only 2 I vaguely remember: “Not on your Nellie” and “Down the ‘Gate.” There are a few Situation Comedies from that era I remember watching: “Feet First” a football ⚽️ comedy. “The Squirrels” also starring Ken Jones. “Room Service” is another I remember watching 📺 I am surprised the Situation Comedies you did mention that I had never heard of..!! With only three channels in the “Good Old Days” there are plenty of shows from the 1970s I do remember 🤔📺

[@stuviewtv]

Hi Alison. Don't think I remember Feet First or Room Service. I may well have to include them in a future forgotten sitcom video!

[@gregduck7455]

Wow, I really enjoyed this look at 1970's Britcoms. Some of these I remember, as a kid in Vancouver, British Columbia. Canada. Some UK sitcoms were broadcast up into Canada from a Yank channel in Bellingham, Washington. KVOS-TV Bellingham catered to the " longing for the old country" tastes of many British Columbians, many B.C'.ers that came from the Ol' Blighty, When I was a boy, tweener & even a teenager in Vancouver, I met many people that had immigrated from the UK to settle in Canada. KVOS-TV was once a CBS network affiliate station, but went independent .Usually later weekend evenings, KVOS would broadcast TV sitcoms from the UK. Also, KVOS-TV every Sunday after noon used to have " Sunday British Theatre" when they'd show classic films like " The Titfield Thunderbolt", " Genevieve", "Iron Maiden", "Carry On" flicks, or a movie that I loved but know can't think of the name of now with Sid James running an outfit called " Glam Cabs". Anyway, I do recall " Don't Drink The Water" with Inspector Blakey. I had a friend that could do a great Blakey impersonation. I vaguely remember that Diana Dors sitcom. Other shows you didn't mention, but I recall from KVOS-TV Bellingham were " Some Mothers Do 'ave Them!" & " Robin's Nest". Cheers & appreciation from British Columbia, Canada.

The scene where there is a crash from the kitchen and Enda comes out explaining he was walking on water (He had a book) but he slipped because the surface was slippery due to the bubbles of washing up liquid.
