Surely the best ever British comedy series. I know that people talk about Only Fools and Horses being the best, but for me, this is it. In case anybody doesn't know what it is about, it is basically about a middle-aged married couple who, after having their London home compulsory purchased by the Council, move to Hampton Wick into a posh neighbourhood. The series is basically about Mildred, the sex-starved wife, trying to better herself and George, her work-shy husband, who seems to delight in upsetting their neighbours. Only 5 series were made, due to the death of Yootha Joyce, but I would recommend this to anybody who appreciates genuine British comedy.
I just wanted to give a credit to Norman Eshley. He played the straight man to George Roper, brilliantly.
A hilarious spin-off for Yootha Joyce and Brian Murphy from 'Man about the House'. George and Mildred have moved into a different house in another part of London and are now confronting their new neighbours, the Fourmiles. The snobbish Geoffrey Fourmile thoroughly detests them and that's where the fun starts. Pretty much the same thing that used to happen in 'Man about the House', except you see more of them.
Brian Murphy is one of the greatest at playing the dumba**.His teaming up with Yootha Joyce was an inspiration. They really could make you believe that they were married! Don't miss this great comedy series it will sure put a smile on your face......

Just watched all these episodes for the first time since i was a kid and i really enjoyed them, i rate them on par with Man about the house, which is the series which introduced us to the Ropers.
So lots of fun.
8.5 out of 10.
