One of the best programmes we've ever had. This was groundbreaking in the way that it was probably the first British sitcom to walk the line between comedy and drama, something which had never been seen before at the time. I think Harry H Corbett and Wilfrid Brambell would've been thrilled to think that Steptoe is still popular to this day and it's amazing that it's come back to terrestrial television. Thank you all for so much pleasure ❤ 😊

This is fantastic. This Christmas special was special in 1973 and as the years roll by you realise just how special Steptoe & Son was and this Christmas episode completely shows up the so-called comedy that the BBC serves up now. I was 12 when I first saw this and I never tire of it because it has it all - it's shows society as it was then - truly brilliant acting and writing with pathos, comedy and portrays life as it was in 1973. Forty four years later it stands out as the best comedy you can watch IMO. Ah, how I miss those times and television. Todays 12 year olds are on Facebook, headphones on, smartphone in their hands and wondering if anyone likes them. Looking back I was so lucky!

[@grandmalovesmebest]

Thank you from across the pond where the American version of this show was "Sanford and Son." The characters were black except for one dumb cop (white) and the neighbor with a goat who was Hispanic. Time of equality of the races and sexes when tv shows allowed for everyone to laugh at each other and themselves. Precious indeed. PBS ran lots of Britcoms and in the 90s, with VCR, I taped 50 8-hour tapes which I later had to re-record on DVDs. However, "Steptoe" was not shown anywhere I lived so I am most grateful to have the chance to see it. I agree you have the best oldies comedies. I know many by heart and still laugh till I cry. Thank you for posting. Please continue to make this work available on YT; we need the laughter more than the BBC needs the cash (I think). Cheers!🙋🇺🇸

Today i don't know anyone without a colour tv and i actually gave the last one i owned away to a recently divorced guy who had fallen on hard times. The main expense of course is the licence and also, for those that indulge it, subscription channels such as Sky, the cost of which i find horrendous so never had it.

I remember making them paper chains in school in the 70s and taking them home to my parents at Christmas 🎅 I love ❤the old ones of these classics thank you 🙏 for sharing them!

Merry Christmas everyone for 2018! This episode is as old as me and still brilliant 😎

I was 9 in 1973. I remember this christmas special watching it with mum dad and my brother. Loved this programme acting superb. The comedies today not in the same league. Too politically correct today.

[@helencampbell2064]

That's very true. Too much PC nowadays. We never get any outstanding situation comedy like Steptoe any more. We haven't got the writers.

Never ever ever ever ever ever be another brambell he was absolutely unbelievable extremely unique

Comedy gold, I've seen it countless times over the years and i still get proper "belly laughs" each time i watch it. I was brought up on programmes like this, i feel so lucky , television today is rubbish in comparison.

[@spmoran4703]

There is no good comedy that's for sure.
