From the first moment you turn this charming dvd on, you will be embraced into a truly wonderful place. Michael Crawfords fantastic portrayal of one man disaster area Frank Spencer is truly something to feel truly humbled by, even the smallest facial expression will have you in stitches for hours. definetly worth the money

I remember 'Some mothers' from my childhood with fond memories, and whilst some of the slapstick humuor has tired with age (probably I'm turning into a miserable old git), it's still classic British comedy that's raised more than the odd smile.

Obviously this is a personal opinion, and there may be some others who detest this style of humour, but one episode on Series 2 (Public relations) made me cry with laughter the other day. Nothing has done that for quite a while, and for that reason, it's getting five stars.

If you like a good laugh then is for you. This is Classic British comedy at it's best and there simply isn't anything around these days that even remotely comes close. Every episode is a cracker. Michael Crawford is funny without even trying. Which makes a change from a lot of modern actors who just try soooo hard and still don't cut the mustard. Apart from Only Fools and Horses, it's one of the very few comedies from this period or any other period that will truly stand the test of time. Buy It!
