As a kid I was always a bit baffled by the hysterical shreiks of laughter on things like Last of the Summer Wine which even at its peak could only ever be described as mildly amusing...

I forget how tragically young Gary Olsen was when he died - 42. I feel bad as I couldn't watch 2 Point 4 Children at the time as I really couldn't bear that Barbara Lott having been traumatised as a child by her performance in Sorry!!
