Found it only like 7 years ago after returning to my small country. How on earth a gem like this got so obfuscated only obscure YT chanells have it?

      @J.E.H How is watching a comedy show selfish? It's not a case of one show or the other, there's plenty of air time, mostly filled with nonsense. Why does everyone have to agree with changes such as being woke? They show what they think is trendy, and lots of people don't watch anymore - hence much lower ratings these days. The 'youth' don't even watch TV, they use youtube, etc. By the way if you click 'reply', instead of typing their name, the OP will know you've replied and might answer back.

    I watched the BBC documentary about NNON the other day, and I never realised that it was supposed to be a vehicle for Rowan Atkinson, he was supposed to be the start, according to the documentary, and the rest were just support for him. It never came across that way, I always thought they were all good, Pamela Stephenson just made you laugh just from the impression she did of contemporary British female stars.

      Really? Always felt that Rowan was the stand out among the four of them. Even in this episode for example, Rowan's expressions are impeccably perfect at every point, his acting is superb and my god his delivery. Every little tensing of shoulders is intentional, every pause deliberate. Several of my friends in theatre can't stop gushing about Rowan everytime we watch this series.
      Tbh rest were also good especially Mel, but Rowan was easily (and considering his future unsurprisingly) the best. I think he even got a Bafta award for his role in this series.
