[QUOTE="Spells & Karma, post: 85040, member: 23"] What long series [I]Pardon The Expression[/I] had. Twelve episodes for Series One and a whopping twenty four for Series Two. Thirty six episodes is the equivalent of five or six series of something like [I]Are You Being Served?[/I] Still, considering only two series were produced it's all to the good. I've started the second series now and it's thoroughly enjoyable. Swindley seems to have become more incompetent, bumbling and accident prone with each passing episode, but in the best possible way. Lowe is entering Captain Mainwaring territory here. Series Two has gained a jazzed-up title sequence and a new character, with Swindley's superior Parbold being replaced by Mr. Hunt. In [I]Self Defence [/I]episode which I watched last night,[I] The Mikado[/I] was mentioned and he briefly recalled a performance in the Glad Tidings Mission Hall with great warmth. It was a rare - and very welcome - reference to the character's time on [I]Coronation Street[/I]. I look forward to my 25-50 minute fix of an evening. It's been a grower for me, but well worth the effort. [/QUOTE]
