    Favourite Eli moments

    Again memory blank for the episode name but when, to promote Auntie's costume department, he is dressed as Dracula and he jumps out to surprise Pearl and gets a handbag clobbering for his troubles just so funny.

    Gentle Comedies - The Definitive Guide

    Thank you Leigh for a comprehensive answer, fascinating, it seems to be a minefield with so many factors influencing what can or cannot be shown.

    Gentle Comedies - The Definitive Guide

    I found it a very entertaining and funny show well worth watching but I have read that David Jason doesn't view it fondly and wont sanction TV repeats which is a great shame however, UK Gold did somehow show episodes a number of years ago but don't recall seeing it scheduled recently so perhaps...

    Blamire

    It's been said before but as series progressed the "shouty" era disappeared which I feel was a great improvement as I personally found it really disturbing and annoying a gentle comedy is no place for balling and shouting if I wanted that I could go into pretty much every pub in the UK [pet hate!!]
