Barbara in the last minute makes me weep for nostalgia. A woman in a mood, wise enough to know it, and loving her man enough to explain it to him. Sweet Lord, what writing and what acting!
Agreed! I've always felt there are a lot of authentic relationship moments in the script. As well as being a very funny show, those particular scenes also make the show touching and believable.
Somebody help me. What is the title of the song Margo was singing in her garden? I vaguely remember it from my younger days but can't remember whole melody or lyric.
My wife thinks it is 'Somewhere over the rainbow' but she is wrong. I think it is just a little warble that they invented for the show - I use it myself when I'm in a good mood.
“I get so many phone calls I have to carry the phone around with me!” Oh how the times have changed!!!!😂
For me, worth watching just for Penelope Keith. Loved the way she played the upper class snob and so attractive!
The entire cast is fantastic! Great acting and timing and comedic techniques!
But, P Keith is my favourite!
The way Tom says "a Chinese bird scarer.....a Chinese bird scarer" is hilarious and when Barbara blows her top 🤣

My youth, I love it. Watched vicar of dibley yesterday

Long before we actually carry phones around with us.
Flashing on the common I suppose.😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
Awe. ❤ this and the music is so heartfelt. (Throughout, not just the theme)
they filmed in front of a live audience and played the prerecorded off set bits on moniters for them.

Excentric millionaires carrying around phones with them - are you crazy!!!
He has the very first mobile phone 😛

What do you think is the best way to scare birds?
Flashing on the common, I suppose.
lol
Thanks
What is the song called Tom is whisteling at 07:29 ? I hear him whistle it in several episodes.
It isn't, as far as I know. As I understand it, it was improvised and became part off Tom when he was insufferably cheery.
In case anyone still fussed it’s the bluebird part of Over the Rainbow xx

I think your wife is right, just speeded up Over the Rainbow:)
Your wife is correct. Briers said as much in an interview.
was this filmed in front of an audience or is it a laugh track? x
Live audience. They pre-recorded the off-set scenes. 🙂
Does anyone know the name of the oven range used on the show?
Aga?
How would Margo's dress fit Barbara, they are completely different sizes.
Taking in hand me downs - a good (English?) tradition!
Never turn down a hand me down - it has many uses!
Always had hand me downs as a kid shoes and underwear were probably only things brought new, oh the memories

Dangerous to whistle around scrubwomen. Bear it in mind!
