Dear John was excellent. Even the theme tune was memorable

[@awall1701]

Ah some fun memories with some of these sitcoms...... If it was not for your video, I would have likely never remembered them. Thank you for sharing.

[@stuviewtv]

My pleasure!

I was born in 93 there's just something about old British sitcoms that I love idk if it's the way they are filmed with the fuzzyness around the image quality or something else they just seem very comforting to me it's so strange to explain I just love them. I get a warm fuzzy feeling. A lot of these shows are older than me lol great video by the way. As a big fan of David Jason I didn't realise he was in those other comedies!

This video just came up as I've just watched Nearest And Dearest, Harry Worth and now watching Goodnight Sweetheart on That's TV 3 😁 still can't beat the old sitcoms.

[@stuviewtv]

Absolutely! Good old-fashioned sitcoms that simply made us laugh.

Great suggestions. Many thanks!

[@richardsharpe2966]

I remember one sit com on BBC 1 with Sir Michael Gambon & Richard Briers

[@stuviewtv]

Ah yes, that was The Other One.

[@QuoPaperPlane]

Just commented on that one. Oops!

[@ashdrive]

They were so bad, that they were good...love the 70s close to the edge humour....😂

[@JAY1892]

A fact I only recently found out, Keith Chegwin had a twin brother. Thanks for another trip down memory lane Stu.

[@stuviewtv]

My pleasure as always.

[@mikedhonau2874]

You have such an obvious affection for these old comedies, it's lovely to see. I'm not sure it's makes you the best judge of how good they are though! So when you say that Don't Drink the Water "isn't great", it makes me think it must be truly horrendous!

[@greebo6549]

👍 Another great selection there Stu 😃 @ 6:31 Derek Griffiths 🤔

[@RamblesBrambles]

A good ol megamix!

[@errolnicholson5632]

There was a group Called The Wackers:-Love Or Money.. 1964 from Liverpool...

[@Turnbull50]

Wonderful video thanks. I really loved Keep it in the family and cowboys. I was not a fan of the Andy Cap series. Kinvig was interesting and I quite liked it. I really loved Dear John which was repeated a few years ago.

[@evelynwilson1566]

The Diana Dors one looks pretty good.

[@madabbafan]

Some of the 80s ones I remember when they were broadcast (Hallalujah for exampĺe) some of the 70s ones only as repeats (you're only young once was repeated about 6 years ago on ITV2).

[@colinp2238]

Hi Stu. It's good to see your living room wallpaper as a backdrop. Did some writers actually write some of these sitcoms specifically as vehicles for the cast members?

[@s4squatch1]

A 70's and 80's compilation 🤔 ....'Now That's What I Call Stu-sic'

[@PaulGould-t7u]

What ever forgotten I've watched them all and got a large amount of them on dvd and video so only forgotten by them that don't like classic British comedy shows as you have to be stoned to watch today's comedy show that an't even funny as I've see funnier thing's dead on it's back at the bottom of a river old British comedy you can't beat it😂

[@Azphreal]

Odd man out is also on youtube.

[@QuoPaperPlane]

Does anybody remember The Other One with Richard Briers and Michael Gambon? It was made soon after The Good Life but apparently was a flop and Briers said it wasn't his greatest moment. I've watched series one and absolutely loved it but I cannot find series two.

[@CheekyBandit]

Have vague memories of the early 80s ITV sitcoms Astronauts and Dead Ernest. Don't think I watched either past the first or second episode of each.

[@centrevezgaming4862]

Romany is the middle name of actress Kate Beckinsale and has an half sister called Samantha both parents are late Richard Beckinsale and Judith Lowe.

[@geraldtalbot6400]

You missed Mog starting Emn Reitel and Abigail Cruttendon. This was aired around 1985 I think

[@mesajom]

Is there a copyright problem if the clips have audio? Just asking as it would be nice to have some audio with the clips

[@stuviewtv]

Sometimes there can be copyright issues, yes.

[@PlasticGirl65]

I watched the wackers when you mention it the first time around. I don't remember it at all in the seventies but I loved it.

[@martinharris6469]

I'm surprised get back wasn't on the list...

[@80srenaissance67]

24:35 Jeremy Clarkson

[@flashtheoriginal]

Stu, you missed Chintz. Easily the worst sitcom ever made. It was broadcast by ITV, focusing on the ups and downs of a boring amateur photographer and his suburban wife. Absolute shite. Fairly Secret Army - that was very well written and performed. Top acting. Shame it flopped...cock up on the commissioning front.
