    Nothing against her but I didn't think that storyline was in keeping with the ethos of the show. That said Roy Clarke was under massive pressure and other than Reggie the rest of the episodes dealing with Compos death were supremely...

    My dad, from his early 40s he spent most the time in a lot of pain, has a little girl I'd seen him cry with pain and it was traumatising to see but every Sunday he'd watch Summer Wine and laugh so I used to sit next to him and watch it...

    I'll begin. I enjoy its simplicity and how it reminds me of my very simple untechnical childhood. I messed about on river banks, climbed trees and cracked a few bones via such activities. I'm not anti tech, but I am anti...

    Andy's true snack would be a Ham and Pease pudding stottie with English Mustard or Flo would make him Panhaggerty .

    I don't think it's surprising as the appeal will be a lot more broader than your Summerwine videos generally. I'm really pleased your hard work is getting the recognition it deserves, and hopefully with the ad revenue it's also now...

    I'm staggered at the apparent popularity of last weeks video: The UK’s Forgotten Sitcoms (1977 to 1986). It had just under 9,000 views in 7 days. For context, some of my Summer Wine Decanted videos from about 2 years ago still only have...

    My take is this re-imagining should star Leigh as he apparently has the best imagination over anyone at BBC. Well done, that man!
