Get Some In!, now there's a blast from the past. Tony Selby has been in loads of good stuff, but even now I still say, "it's Corporal Marsh."

One of the best sitcoms I've ever seen. It's not hilariously funny or even well acted at times but there was something about it. I even joined the RAF on the back of watching this series when it was repeated on UK GOLD in the early 1990s.

Quality.

Really?!

Oh yes indeedy, a decision I don't regret to this day. It's frightening how true to life shows like this really are. My drill corporal was a right bastard and made Cpl Marsh look like Judith Chalmers.

Bloody norah.

A good idea for whole new thread-sit-coms that inspired your career.

My rag and bone business went belly up and my Torquay hotel was disaster after being jailed for assaulting my Spanish waiter. The head screw was a strict Glaswegian presbetyrian so it all worked out in the end.

Hiya there! Welcome in!
