	In contrast to Elizabeth's thread. What programmes did you NOT like. My OH and son always fell about laughing at Black Adder. OH still laughs at any re-runs. Daughter and myself never found it funny. I still dislike it.

	One man's meat and all that. I liked Howards way because it was filmed in Hamble not so far from where I grew up and an area familiar to me.

	I know it's a classic, but I don't really like Fawlty Towers - I find John Cleese too manic and it gives me a headache, lol! Love Prunella Scales as Sybil, though. I also hated Benny Hill, Triangle, Crossroads, Dallas and Dynasty.

	Thank you Sheila for inadvertently solving a problem for me. We have been trying to think what we saw Kate O'Mara in. Triangle that was it. actually I didn't mind that one too much, it was something to watch. Fawlty towers I sometimes found a bit cringing. Some of it made me laugh, some of it was too OTT. Same with Benny Hill sometimes funny, sometimes too crude. You notice that, unlike Morecambe and Wise, you don't get re-runs of Benny Hill.

	Fawlty Towers, as said. Only Black adder one worth watching in my mind was the first world war one. Didnt much like That was the week, that was'.

	Black Adder, although my hubby loves it. Never liked Benny Hill, Dallas and Dynasty either. I'm sure there are more programmes that I didn't like, but can't remember them at the moment. Sallie.

	Jean, thanks for reminding me, I didn't like That was the week that was, either. Jenny, I didn't like Surgical Spirit, and Only when I laugh wasn't much better. Sallie.

	Dear All Hello Hope you are all okay. Good post Ann "Albion Market" had a young Simon Rouse in it for a while. He then went onto play Jack Meadows in "The Bill". Episodes of "Dynasty" weren't too bad at times, but at other the plots and the acting was ridiculous. Oh, and the hairdos and clothes .Arghhhhh! And that was just the men! Take gentle care Very best wishes xx
