These are forgotten

A couple of days ago I wrote about an Youtube video about forgotten 1980s British sit-coms. However the list included some baffling choices. Ever Decreasing Circles, Just Good Friends, Only When I Laugh and Shelly. Down below is a list of truly forgotten shows/

The Bounder

Peter Bowles coming off both Only When I Laugh and To the Manor Born stars a released fraudster who moves in with his sister (played by Roslind Ayres and his brother in law played by George Cole. The Bounder ran for 2 series between 1982-83. Of course round Cole was playing the iconic role of dubious businessman Arthur Daley in Minder

Laura and Disorder

Wendy Craig best known for being the downtrodden wife in Butterflies starred as a woman forever embarrassing her strait laced son. It ran for only 1 series in 1989


Morris Minor's Marvellous Motors

Under the nom-de-plume Morris Minor and the Majors Tony Hawks enjoyed a hit with the Beastie Boys spoof Stutter Rap (No Sleep Until Bedtime) which reached No 4 in the UK in 1988. A year later Hawks starred as the main character who was trying to prolong his music career. The character did not succeed and the show only lasted a year.
