It&#39;s the infamous episode where the Major goes full Bernard Manning (never go full Bernard!)After holding a minute&#39;s silence to mark the Major&#39;s cancellation, we muse over 70s hospitals, a very mixed bag of German puns, and a Fawlty themed World Cup song.#FawltyTowers #SADDO #dontmentionthewarCheck out the corresponding show notes page at <a href="https://saddo.club/podcast/s02e07-the-major-gets-cancelled" rel="nofollow">https://saddo.club</a> Support this podcast at — <a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/sitcom-archive-deep-dive-overdrive/donations'>https://redcircle.com/sitcom-archive-deep-dive-overdrive/donations</a>

S02E07.5 - Stephen Hall (Basil Mark II)

We love sitcoms. Particularly classic British sitcoms of the 1970s and 1980s. They remind us of our happy childhoods, watching television with our families in the evenings, back when choice was limited to just three or four channels.Now – 30 or 40 years later – we still love to watch classic sitcoms like Rising Damp, Fawlty Towers, Porridge and more: it’s like going to visit an old friend with whom you immediately feel relaxed and comfortable.Starting with The Good Life (Good Neighbors to American audiences), we&#39;ll be taking a weekly deep dive into every single episode ever made of our favourite childhood sitcoms: examining the humour, characters, fashions and cringey bits together.Join us at saddo.club to get involved!
