I'd give it a 20 rating if I could.
Why has it been hiding, and not been "out there" in a more obvious way?
- Due to the fact I so admire Nicholas Lyndhurst, I've been scanning the internet for all the works he's been in. Low & behold, I stumbled across this - GNSH. Ohhh but why were these fabulous actors on for only 6 series? Being presented with a comedy which has British quick-witted, intelligent & amusing dialogue amongst first-rate tremendous actors, does not happen often!
I truly believe that Nicholas Lyndhurst has finally broken the mould as "Rodney" - He stands strong & separate from his Rodney character, although I loved him & Sir. David Jason in Only Fools. Alas! he's also great in another sitcom - New Tricks.
Nicholas Lyndhurst can inspire anyone's imagination about re-living the past... He tends to inspire "what if I could go back and..." His acting is convincing.
I wonder if the writers will want to make GNSH II - Will all the original actors want to make a come-back?
I haven't finished the GNSH episodes yet (I'm taking my time with the great sitcom), however I'm sure there is potential for Part II? the return - possibly as "Goodnight Sweetheart - Modern Day Marvels (1998)"
Is there anyone out there to convey this message to the writers?
I'm putting it out there into the Universe - It might attract the right attention?
Mr. Lyndhurst you are adored in the land of Oz, MiniTots Loves your acting!
Despite not being as laugh out loud funny as many other classic sitcoms, this show is just so watchable!
The time travel element is such an interesting idea for a traditional sitcom and it works so well here. The 1940s scenes are very well done and you can that a lot of research was done to get the era spot on. The plots were also very interesting, showing gary interact with various historic characters and how they impact the future.
The casting and characters are also spot on. Nicholas Lyndhurst does well to portray gary in such a way that he is almost likeable, despite committing adultery and doing some very selfish things at times. His face acting is also brilliant, particularly when doing his shocked 'I've been caught out' facial expressions! Ron was also great as Gary's long suffering and only friend, some of his monologues were brilliant and he always provided some comic relief even in some of the more dramatic and serious episodes.
The original series was also wrapped up very nicely with a very satisfying, even if slightly sad, conclusion back in 1999. Although there was also a one off special in 2016.
Overall, this sitcom was absolutely excellent and in my opinion deserves more recognition. It is one of those shows you could just binge watch over and over again, and I actually believe there could be plenty of mileage in any future series following the very open ending in the 2016 one off episode.
Brilliant plot, superb characters and the story lines get better and better as the series goes on.
Perhaps people's perceptions of this great show are tainted by the fact Nicholas Lyndhurst plays the main character as people still see him as "Rodney".
In GNSH Lyndhurst is able to show what a great actor he is unlike his previous one dimensional character in "Only fools " He is joined by a great cast which really makes the show more enjoyable to watch.
It is light hearted, foolhardy and slapstick.
If you're interested in time travel and comedy then this is for you.
If you love British comedy then this is for you.
Awesome! I wish it would make some kind of comeback.
I'm in the process of writing a "spin-off" of the show based on Gary Sparrow's grandson for a university assignment. How amazing it would be if something like this actually came true!

- Erros de gravaçãoThe photo portrait of King George VI, by Yousuf Karsh and hanging on the back wall of The Royal Oak, wasn't taken until 1943, but appears from Series 1 Ep 1 which is based in 1940.
The same photo can been seen hanging on the wall of the MI5 office of Tufty McDuff, in S05 E06 and E07, where, in 1944, it can be considered OK.
