I'm not a huge fan of TV sitcoms, but I do find the BBC show My Family, starring Robert Lindsay and Zoe Wanamaker, stupidly funny.
But despite drawing in nearly five million loyal viewers, the BBC has decided to swing the axe.
As My Family contains no swearing, no violence, no rampant sex and a couple of stars in their sixties, it clearly has no place on the new BBC.
