seemore 66 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Hey Gareth I don't recall that one but while watching related links, they had "The Banana Splits" "HR puffnstuff""Catweazle" and the memory is triggered by a bunch of chopper riding cartoon mice? Thanks for the trip down memory lane Seemore Link to post Share on other sites

gareth_oau 2 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Its quite amazing that a show of only 12 episodes could generate such a huge following. probably the best sitcom of all time!! are you aware that Polly was John Cleese's real wife at the time? My favourite episode was with the intermittently deaf Mrs Richards! Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 yes indeed. 12 episodes of classic comedy. Thanks Basil. Link to post Share on other sites
