Me too, I loved it at the time, it was one of my Favs, I loved Brenda's eye shadow and always felt really sorry for Malcom. Great show The theme tune always made me laugh too.

He's a 14 carat wimp, I would rather av' a chimp as my other half , but then I'm not so ideal, I'm not gentle or genteel(?) so the question should be what does he seeeeee in meeeee. also from memory

Re: Name that sit com

Just found both the opening and closing lyrics
opening lyrics)
It was boredom at first sight.
You could hardly call him bright.
He is no-one's Mr. Right.
So what do I see in him?

But then I'm not so ideal.
I'm not gentle or genteel.

So the question should be
What does he
See in me?

(closing lyrics)
Have I fallen in his spell?
Does he drown me in Chanel?
Is he vibrant? Is he hell!
So what do I see in him?

Am I dazzled by his style?
Has he made my life worthwhile?
Does he melt me with his smile?
Don't make me laugh.

Every inch of him is limp.
He's a 14-carat wimp.
I would rather have a chimp
As my other half.

But then I'm not blessed with charm.
I bring chaos where there was calm.

So the question should be
What does he
See in me?

So sweet to read those lyrics Heather.

"Does he drown me in Chanel?
Is he vibrant, is he hell!" lol

WATCHING--Emma Wray/ Paul Bown

Just bought the box set of all 7 series of Watching. Absolute classic comedy, Emma Wray's one liners are great.
One of the most under rated comedies on TV.

Anyone else remember this and like/loathe it

Re: WATCHING--Emma Wray/ Paul Bown

I remember liking the series, but it's the theme that really sticks in my mind...

Watching Theme Song

Re: Name that sit com

First post here but I had to join in this one. My friend's Dad wrote the series - he got us tickets to see the original play in Liverpool, way before it was brought to the telly. I remember it being strange when the programme started up because the actors weren't the ones I'd originally seen.

Great memories though
