I was lying in bed, watching The Young Ones, when it crossed my mind that it is a BBC series, and made me wonder how far it got away from Britain...

For those of you unaware, The Young Ones was a song by Cliff Richard, and a hit TV series about a group of English students, it was dead funny...hehehe...

Among other BBC classics were Fawlty Towers and Only Fools and Horses. Anyone outside Britain hear of these programmes? Anyone in Britain remember and like them?

[singing} The young one's should never be afriad, to live (dun dun dun) love, theres a song to be sung, cause darling we won't the the young ones very long!

YAY! I love the young one's (as well you know). I named my dog after Rik Mayall. Who could forget him and Vivian shouting "Neil, your bed's on fire!".

I reckon my favotire episodes are Sick, Time and Nasty, what do u think boys and gurls?

Ooo ooo Oil's my fav. "I was playing murder in the dark and i got reeeeeaaaaaally bored so i head butted the floor really hard."

BBC comedies in Singapore (that I can remember, list spans many years):

Radio:
I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

TV:
Mr Bean
'Allo 'Allo [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
Mind Your Language [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
Fawlty Towers
Benny Hill Show
A show starring Richard Corbett (short guy, not sure if I got the name right)
A number of shows starring Eric Sykes
Monty Python

There are probably several others, but these are the ones that come to mind right now.

I was also fond of the Monopoly they played -
"Congratulations, it is your birthday, you may set fire to Riks bed" and
"Get Out of Gaol Free Card - You may keep this card, sell it, or stick it up Rik's bottom"

Does no-one else have any fave Young Ones episodes?

Of course! How could I forget Monty Python's Flying Circus? I'm pretty sure they stopped making that before I was born, but it's still goooood :-D

Also, u might mean Ronnie Corbett - looks a bit like a mole?

<font color=FFFFFF>I have never seen this serie lol! Ahh i have been a Red Dragon hurray!!!!</font>
