Crikey, Chris! After we've had our pint or two I'm not coming back to your place no matter how nicely you ask...unless Drop the Dead Donkey is on a loop...... :-)

[Buenchico]

I'm pleased to see that I'm not the only one who loved Eurotrash!

It was so bad that it was almost unwatchable but, equally, it was so brilliant that it was also totally unmissable ;-)

>>> After we've had our pint or two I'm not coming back to your place no matter how nicely you ask

Not even if I promise to show you my etchings, Gness?

;-)

Father Ted - head and shoulders above the rest
Fek, drink, girls

[Mozz71]

Definitely Chris. Dad and I used to watch it together. He used to love Jean-Paul Gautier. I'm not sure he knew who he was lol

[DTCwordfan]

I guess with Brexit, we can't visit the manse on Craggy Island - shame.... Actually, I'm surprised Ryan Air haven't started Knock Knock jokes, given they can't fly anywhere....

"A man walks up to the Ryan counter at Knock airport. “Can I help you?” asks the agent.
“I want a roundtrip ticket,” says the man.
“Where to?” asks the agent.
“Right back here, you berk.”

I liked Eurotrash as well. I also remember something called Rapido.

[gness]

I have been caught by the etchings thing before, Chris. The fickle teenage me dated a chap because he looked like Bob Dylan. He invited me up to see his etchings.
He really did have etchings....it was a dull evening... You'll need to come up with something other than etchings........:-(

[Buenchico]

Same presenter, different channel, Tigger:

Must've been the presenter thing then.

Hill Street Blues, none finer.

[james412]

Ultraviolet
Spaced
Hill Street Blues
Eurotrash
Father Ted

[New Judge]

Apart from one, I haven't heard of any of the above listed programmes. I only know of Father Ted. I watched it once as I thought Father Brown was on (probably too much electric soup). When I say I watched it, I endured it for about ninety seconds.

Each to their own, I suppose.

[Prudie]

I never really remember which channel did which programme. I loved Hill Street Blues but wouldn't have remembered it being Ch 4. Two Ch 4 programmes I did always watch, not because I particularly liked them but because they were so out there and different for their time, were The Tube and TFI Friday (back in the day when Chris Evans wasn't quite so irritating).
