How many voted???

This "Manor Barn" sounds interesting. What's it about? 2 owls? (Sorry for being so pedantic but well done and thanks for doing this. I presume it was compiled from our recent thread.)

And this 'Greenwing' thing, whilst we're at it. ;)

WTH, How did Still Game beat Rab C.

a good turn out for early doors, that must have been me and britcom barry fudding the right button of the mouse over and over

WTH, How did Still Game beat Rab C.

Personally, I think it's funnier, has better characters, better plot lines, stronger jokes, good story telling and you can understand them, which helps.

How come bottom is at 25th? and where's Ab Fab?

Oh you've found it. This was our voting.

yeah I realised that... I think Bottom should have ended in a better place tho :( It was hillarious

What - like at "The Bottom?"

<_< was it supposed to be funny?

Only Fools and Horses will always win.

only one of my faves ended up in the top 10 :( OK, Porridge is very good, too, I admit.

Yes - it was SUPPOSED to be - but wasn't really was it.
