The Likely lads

[Robches]

"I always found the theme tune massively depressing. The whole series was quite melancholy come to think of it."


That's the point, it was comedy which was actually about something, in this case the inevitable fact that you have to come to terms with the end of your youth, and the fact that life has not turned out how you thought it would.

Let's just say it's a bit deeper than Little smegging Britain.

It's available on torrent at demoinoid,along with some of the series.
Same goes for a lot of classic old TV series.I've grabbed a good few myself...being an exile I can't see this stuff on TV either,it's a godsend for me.

Thelma fancied Terry im sure.

I think you might be right, and that might be part of the reason she disapproved of him so much. They can't help liking a bad boy can they? Which is sad for those of us who are life's Bobs!
