The British Laurel and Hardy, 24 November 2007
9/10
Author: Victor Meldrew from Manchester

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

This sitcom is in my opinion a forgotten comedy classic starring two brilliant sitcom characters: Hugh Lloyd and Terry Scott.

Terry Scott still lives with his Mum. There lodger is Hugh Lloyd. Terry looks a bit like Oliver Hardy and Hugh looks a bit like Stan Laurel. Terry is always getting bright ideas and likes Hugh to get involved, but Hugh is not the brightest of people and often ruins Terry's plans.

Apart from the "Seven of One" episode "Another Fine Mess" where Ronnie Barker and Roy Castle played Laurel and Hardy, this is in my opinion the closest the British sitcom got to the fabulous pair. This show was long running and even got spun-off into a series called "Hugh and I spy" Sadly though, it is now forgotten. I've only seen the first episode and was very surprised at how good it was. When the opening credits came up and it said written by John Chapman, I honestly thought Oh no. The reason for this is because I've recently been disappointed by a sitcom of his called "Fresh Fields" But his writing in this is very sharp and funny. I'm unsure whether all the episodes are in the archives. I would like to see more.

Best Episode: Series 1, episode 1: Because it's the only one I've seen
