Re: Me and my girl.

Yeah I remember this one. Tim Brooke-Taylors character had a wife and family we never saw as a running gag.

I think you could really see what a bloomin good actor Tim Brooke-Taylor was in this series.

Re: Me and my girl.

I did a bit of reading up on Richard O' Sullivan on Wikipedia. He's only 67 or so. Sadly he had a stroke in 2003. It amazes me that he was immensely popular both as an actor producers wanted and as a celebrity fans liked watching and yet he turned his back on everything at a fairly young age. He's quite the recluse still and is now in an Actors retirement home...I guess he just got sick of it all perhaps...Shame, I liked him and I know my Mum liked seeing him in things like Man About The House and Robins Nest...Funnily, hes on my tv right now in Cleopatra.

I vaguely remember watching Dick Turpin, and really loved seeing it as a kid.

I remember TBT in you Must Be The Husband in the 1980's.

Re: Me and my girl.

The theme tune was sung by Peter Skellern. I used to enjoy 'Me & My Girl', it was typical of that mid-to-late-'80s type of gentle domestic sitcom under which you could also classify 'That's Love', 'After Henry', 'Second Thoughts' (although that may have been slightly later), and 'May To December'.

Re: Me and my girl.

I used to like 'Me & My Girl'. It deserves a DVD release.
