Brush Strokes

Today i finished watching the last series. Again. After 20 years. Not only does it leave us hanging Mike Walling has just died.

Even if they just repeated the episodes again. This programme was truly brilliant. So well acted, so well written, so funny, and nice and clean, with likeable characters such as Jacko and Elmo. I loved this programme!

Yet another example of BBC Americas failure to show great stuff from their extensive catalogue of gems.

This show was actually a big hit and had the tabloids going over the antics of Jacko. Not only that but it brings back fond memories of home that a lot of shows totally miss!!

I hope it's on DVD soon!!

Jacko was a lovable rogue with a way with the ladies that had any woman in Britain over 30 dying to meet him!! At least for the first 2-3 seasons. It was fun, family entertainment. I guess you might equate its popularity to citizen smith.

I cringe at the suits choices of what they release in the US, and their spectacular money losing remakes, but it would be lovely to see a show like this doing a run somewhere!!...Oh and did I say DVD PLEASE!

Just been watching this for the 1st time had the impression it was sexist rubbish but I was pleasantly surprised nicely passes the time but I do feel it wasn't sure what it's aim was,another reviewer said it was un pc but in the 1st 4 episodes he dated a wheelchair user and a Jamaican,he never disrespected the women or manipulated them into bed like so many American comedies,so I felt it was trying to keep everyone happy,I would say it had a pr problem than a pc one.

Brilliant non pc writing... of an age gone by like the Likely Lads it's just brilliant lad comedy This does show consequences of Jackos life This brings back so many memories... love Gary Waldhorn and miss Elmo
