Funny how you remember these comedies after all these years, remembering Home James! has now triggered another 'comedy' from ITV during this era: Bottle Boys, starring Robin Askwith. I blame my dad for making watch these when I was younger.

Saw a couple of episodes of Bottle Boys. Didn't remember much about it so looked it up on the IMDB site and sort of tied in with what I remembered, i.e. the show was made in the 1980s but with a very 1970s un-PC feel about it.

Regarded by some as the worst ever sit-com, I believe.

I can't remember if it was any good, but I did watch it so I must have thought it was alright. All I remember is 'More Tea Misses Wembley?'
