Great episode, only MASH episode that rivalled this in terms of humour IMO was Adam's Ribs .Flagg is defimitely one of those less is more characters, he made more of an impact due to his relatively few appearances on the show. Especially like the looks on Frank, BJ and Hawkeye's faces when Flagg tells them he was a showgirl at the Sands in Vegas. Pity Edward Winter went relatively young he was a great comedy actor, particularly liked his scenes with Alan Alda and Larry Linville. Season 5,IMO, was the peak of the show, but Linville, I feel, was right to quit when he did, Frank 's ineptness was starting to become annoying rather than funny

halfway through third episode but from what I have seen, v. good, and scarily believable,people are quick to trash this show as they look at things from the past with rose-coloured spectacles on, the same with Merlin they probably think Excalibur was the ultimate Merlin film. Anyway, the acting is particularly good esp. Julie Graham Max Beesley and Paterson Joseph-seem to remember him being good in The Beach as well-anyway anyone who hasn't watched this yet, tune in and give it a go, thoroughly recommended, and OK the idea of the characters being on the same road at the same time was far-fetched, but for me, it worked. 10/10
