TV Sitcom Catchphrases

[jakkimeads]

In which 1980s sitcom did we encounter 'phenomenal' as a catchphrase?

I seem to get the feeling it was Nicholas Lyndhurst ??

[Postdog]

so do I but I don't think it was Only Fools, maybe Butterflies or one of his others. Having said that, I'm still not sure.

I seem to remember a woman saying it . I can remember some friends and I went through a stage of saying it (sad I know). She was blond and sort of ditsy.
Oh God that's going to annoy me now!

I remember it but can't think of the name. I remember the blonde woman and she used to say to her friend or sister " Oh it's phenonemal Sylv" as in Sylvia. Arrrgh I'll be racking my brains now!

It was a series called Sitting Pretty, the main character was Annie - who said "Phenomenal" in a strange sort of accent, who is broke after her husband dies leaving her with nothing . She has to go and live with her sister and family on a farm but she (Annie) still has airs & graces even though she's not as posh as she thinks she is.
It was a John Sullivan comedy - Only Fools etc it wasn't, but not that bad a series. I sort of felt a bit sorry for Annie
