How I agree with Vince Powell and his assessment of the sitcom situation today.

Everybody I talk to is fed up with the lack of a real, happy, laughter-making sitcom.

Most shows are crude and completely without humour of the feel-good sort we used to love.

Thank goodness Last Of The Summer Wine has started a new series and, of course, there are repeats of Dad's Army, in which we don't have to endure bodily functions and four-letter words.

Frasier, Cheers, Seinfeld and the rest are all right but they are not British humour.
