My favorite episode is the one where the customer asks for salt!

I like Lenny Henry and enjoyed that programme - but I think it's quite old.

The old ones are the best - they make quite a lot of c***p these days! Lenny Henry is still very funny!

I love this program.... Wish I could get it aired in my neck of the woods. When I lived up north, Minneapolis, it would come on after 11:00 pm so I'd stay up and watch. Saw one episode, don't remember exactly which one, but I laughed so hard and so loud I woke the whole house. My wife was a bit perturbed, that was until she sat down and watched an episode with me.

Best line by far.... "I'm gonna sack him. No wait! I'm gonna kill him then I'm gonna sack... God will understand". I still find myself using that line when I get frustrated with a staff member......


Best Regards.
