Shame that...I can clearly remember watching the black & white ones back in the '60s, with mum and dad, always a family favourite.
Paxman's not bad in the role actually and it continued to be a favourite of my mum's, right up to when she was 92 and we always enjoyed watching it together.
It's a rare show that's basically the same over and over, but you never get tired of it.
The Young Ones sketch was great fun.
