    (the only problem with this game is that we can only ever use American TV programs because those are the only ones that are likely to have been seen all around the world. British shows don't seem to make it to the USA - except in cheesey remakes)

    Addam's Family? That quote reminds me of Lurch for some reason.

    EDIT - sorry, that just sounds completely wrong to me all of a sudden. My brain must be on strike.

    No, think British. My brain is not working too well tonight. Just posted the first thing that popped into my head. Bet DHB knows it.

    Sorry I cant get Falty Towers out of my mind. Don't think thats it.

    Note: I do know Ted Cassidy (lurch) is buried in the back yard of someones property in Phillipi WV. Why I have such useless information in my brain is beyond me. :lol:

    No. It is an old show but turns up on USA PBS. Don't think a lot of episodes were made. It was funny tho.

    I seem to have posted a little known show. Maybe this would help:

    "Are you free?"

    Maybe we should move on to something else. It's midnight here and I'm off to bed. Good night, all.

    Aha! It is "Are you being Served?"!

    What a classic! I didn't know that ever ended up on US TV. They made loads of episodes of that.

    Next one: "George Popadopolous" (almost certainly spelt incorrectly but that shouldn't stop you if you know it)
