Michael Bates (Blamire) was only in the first 7 episodes. Pilot and 1st
series. I don't recall Foggy's first turn in LOTSW. Just after he came
riding into town on the Brit version of a Greyhound bus. I liked his
character much better than the popmous twit, Seymour.

MP> I liked that one, too.  I was partial to Wendy Richard's character.

Ms Brahms was easy on the eyes.

MP> Also like "Keeping Up Appearances" and "Doc Martin."

How about Good Neighbours? That was more hilarity. Or Vicar of Dibley?
