Re: Tv programmes that would not be shown today
Even at the time some Monty Python sketches were controversial, & sometimes had to be edited out of repeats.
Luckily a complete Blu ray set is coming out which has reinstated a lot of material where it still exists.

Re: Tv programmes that would not be shown today
Dad's Army is still shown on BBC 2 on Saturday nights, so hardly a programme that would "not" be shown nowadays.

Re: Tv programmes that would not be shown today
Even when Dad's Army was being thought up the creators were worried it would be seen as mocking the real Home Guard. I guess it's still shown as it's quite easy going.
Allo Allo did get some complaints of trivialising the work of the French Resistance, but managed to last due to it's farce elements.

How on earth Dad's Army has survived repeatedly being shown as it is so Cheesy and not as it Glorify's war, but makes a mockery out of a subject that should'nt be mad a mockery amazes me
Growing up I never got Allo Allo, but comparing that to Dad's Army is completley different in that it creates jokes and fun out of War settings. To me Dad's Army should have been axed years backIi feel!

Only When I Laugh is better because hospitals and doctors make a great subject for comedy shows - my favourite Carry On films were Again Doctor, Nurse and Matron.

I don't think that it will ever happen - sitcoms like that are in the past.

No way i'd say (cos that is in essence what they'd be doing)
