While my wife and I enjoy many British shows, this is by far our favorite. The characters are so likable, the dialogue so authentic and the ambiance so warm. The genuine care the characters share for each other is very refreshing. Not to mention the quality of the actors that bring it to life.
This show does not resort to site gags or lame one liners to get its laughs. It's a sitcom in the truest sense because it derives its humor from the situations the characters find themselves in. However, I believe the thing that really sets this series apart from all the others is the love, respect and dedication each character shows for one another. This is a good show about good people and it just doesn't get any better than that.
If there is such a thing as a perfect TV show, this is it.
We own the complete set on DVD and watch them as we sit down for dinner. I mean after all, who wouldn't want to have dinner with Lionel and Jean? Pass the custard tarts please.
