...and she made a very pretty hooker. Julia has the most beautiful smile; I think that's what makes her so amazing, her smile.

Disadvantages: Not very P-C at times so not for the sensitive

The early episodes of OFITG are a good example of how funny OFITG has been to start to finish. The complete series 1 is an excellent way to start the story of Victor's retirement years, and then continue on to the rest of the series (6 in total). There is a full box set available which will save you a fair penny - I bought each individually as I was particularly impatient to be able to watch OFITG again. Looking back, the first series especially ...
...but this all adds to the cosy situational comedy, and of course part of the appeal is its relatability to middle aged ninties suburbia - quite potent issues are raised in the episodes, even in Series 1, like hooliganism (episode The Valley of Fear). This series is much more central to the couple and Mrs Warboys is not well established yet - nor is much said of the neighbours yet - this is all to come later. The DVD contains: EP1 Alive and Buried ... Read review

Snobbery is an essentially English characteristic. As George Orwell noted during World War II: "England is the most class-ridden country under the sun... It is a land of snobbery and privilege, ruled largely by the old and silly". As a consequence British comedy has always been littered with snobs of all descriptions, my personal favourite being Margo Leadbetter in "The Good Life". But it was Hyacinth from the BBC's hit sitcom "Keeping Up Appearances" ...
...Up Appearances" ran for 5 series from 1990 to 1995 on the BBC attracting huge audiences.

Advantages: clean humour, back to the old days type of movie
Disadvantages: some people may miss the point unless they really get into the show

Nowadays people are just so busy and tied up in their day to day life that we are missing out and aren't happy any more. This movie is a prime example of that and how Billy Crystal's character gets out of that "rut". We are given an example of how most of our lives look,how unhappy, and unfulfilled we might be and what someone does to rectify that problem. A cattle round up is so far from what people even think about anymore but that is where Billy ...
...do. They meet great people and some not so great people and are taught, especially Billy the Kid that humour should not be at other's expense, even if that is how you try to deal with a situation. Billy is taught that there really is only one thing is life that is important and he must find out what that is to be happy, we all must find out what that one thing is to be happy. After lots and lots of great experiences and lessons "Billy the Kid" comes ... Read review
