*Sigh"
There's a few sitcoms in this list that are either too high up the list or too far down in my views.
How they failed to place One Foot in the top 20 is beyond me. Ab fu**ing Fab top 10. Detectorists, although I've heard many good things, has that even stood the test of time to respectfully be in this top 20? Reggie Perrin?!
My choice and "the people's" choice in 2004 was a slightly different top 10, but the "experts" as it were see it differently.
