Dads Army is a very British situation comedy and may not transfer well to foreign audiences , especially with subtitles but to us it's the perfect 1970s sitcom. It's a little bit offensive in places as everything was in the 1970s...

"Fake News"

kay lar @jaylar (3667) • Kingston, Jamaica 2 May 25

RIP David Graham- voice of the Daleks.

April @thislittlepennyearns (68196) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 21 Sep 24

I might have a soft spot for this death because his voice was responsible for one of the "monsters" from one of my favorite shows, but he was also known for many many other things. David Graham voiced the Daleks on Doctor Who....

Arthur Chappell @arthurchappell (44941) • Preston, England 26 Feb 19

BBC – 2019 – Spoiler alerts The new BBC TV sit-com Warren, starring the usually reliable and excellent Martin Clunes as the eponymous hero, is the most unfunny comedy I have ever sat through. Warren is a miserly middle-aged...

Regarding the new Doctor

Katt Rocketman @PeachieMew (881) • Cleveland, Ohio 15 Jan 18

As every Doctor Who fan likely already knows, the latest incarnation of the Doctor is a woman--and a very lovely woman, if I may be so bold. This is, in my opinion, a very positive change for a myriad of reasons. Firstly, I've had...
