      Janice, I was about to say those exact same words. There's nothing tragic about death, you are born, you live for a while, then you die. Great! Lucky to have had the experience of existing for a little while.

    I never heard about this show until I was browsing on UA-cam one day and didn’t know what to watch and I came across this show and decided to watch an episode on UA-cam. It was interesting and then I wanted to see another and another and another. So I decided to buy to complete series on dvd from Amazon. After watching the entire series I enjoyed it so much that I watched it over again and again and again and it became one of my favorite TV shows now. The interesting part for me was that it started in 1972. That’s the year I was born 1972 that’s very interesting. My favorite actor on the show is John Inman.

    I can't believe how young they were when they were on the show. Mrs. Slocolm was 50? Old Mr Grace was in his 50s and Mr. Rumbold was in his 30s? That can't be right. They all seemed older.

    All died tragically? Maybe Wendy Richard, perhaps Trevor Bannister (though he was 76) - but the rest of them were knocking on a bit; death isn't tragic - I'm quite looking forward to mine; it'll be an experience..... But come on - Frank Thornton was 92, Harold Bennett had a 60 plus year career, and Arthur Brough's name was pronounced "Bruff", not "Bro" - tsk!
    Nice to see them again, anyway.
