    Well I enjoyed it!
    Got to see this for the first time in about 1989. A friend had recorded 6 episodes on video. I still have them, but would dearly love to see the two missing ones, but especially the one about the Skrover car.

    Perhaps it is my age and silly sense of humour, but I loved the jokes about beetroot, listening satellites, Albanians etc.

    So politically incorrect for showing again on television I guess.

    My favourite episode is the one where Reg takes an overdose of pep pills which make him feel randy - much to the delight of his wife who is always trying to get him into bed at the same time as herself (she works nights on the railways!)
