Ooooh! Titter ye not, Missus! Titter ye not!

Frankie Howard leads the way in this classic, innuendo riddled sitcom from a simpler but still fitlhy era. A class in how to skirt the bounds of good taste with impeccable plausible deniability.

One Playhouse, 2 series and one movie. What a lovely way to spend one’s birthday!

Well, please yourselves.

It definitely has its root firmly on the stage and bawdy penny theatre shows.

Definitely helped by the other players being largely deadpan. Kind of like Police Squad! in that regard, but with lots of fourth wall breaking instead of a straight front man.
