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
This show centred around Jacko, a self-professed ladies man, who as a builder and decorator worked in many a housewife's kitchen. However, the real strength of the show was in the supporting cast, especially Howard Lew Lewis as Elmo Putney, owner and manager of the worst pub in London. He would scare away the customers with his full-on attempts at friendliness and salesmanship, and his finest hour was when he refurbished the pub into a wine bar, resplendent in flamingo pink and lace curtains everywhere. pressed to come up with a stylish, continental-sounding name for the new bistro, he chose "Elmo Putney's Wine Bar". He made the show what it was, a great half-hour each week!
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.
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!

i have watched this show many years ago on TV have now just finished watching it again my regret is that i have finished and now i am wishing there had been a lot more series to watch at least i have it all on DVD so can watch again in years to come because i know they would never remake this show again in modern times as the critics would accuse jacko as being a sexist pig my how times have changed very thin skins these days so if you get the chance to watch the show relax enjoy and throw a big raspberry to all the sad sacks and remember sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me.
Lo sapevi?
- QuizThe series, and in particular the opening credits, is frequently referenced by Diane Morgan's comedy character "Philomena Cunk." It appears in her TV appearances, YouTube videos, and her book "Cunk On Everything."
- BlooperIn one episode Jacko reads a bedtime story to a little girl. The cover of the book he is holding is clearly Stan and Jan Berenstain's "The Bears' Vacation" but the story he is reading out is completely different.
