Welcome to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST

In this episode ROBERT and ALEX travel to WWII France to discuss the much loved 1982 - 1992 sitcom ALLO' ALLO'.

We talk catchphrases, bad French and the Fallen Madonna with the Big Boobies as well as taking a specific look at the 2007 tv special THE RETURN OF ALLO' ALLO'.

So pull up a chair in Café René, order a glass of the cheap wine... and try not to grope the waitresses!

Welcome back to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING, a podcast all about the sometimes odd world of British sitcoms.

In this episode we’re joined once again by MARK ADAMS from SHIPWRECKED & COMATOSE: A RED DWARF PODCAST as we delve headfirst into series one of the Grant/Nayler sitcom THE 10%ERS

Yes, having previously teamed up to discuss the 1993 pilot episode (available to listen to now in our back catalogue!), we thought we'd do the only honourable thing and return for a full review of the first series!

Welcome to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST

It’s time to get political as ROBERT and ALEX discuss the 1984 Christmas Special of YES, MINISTER and the 1987 first episode of THE NEW STATESMAN.

In the run up to the 2024 UK general election we thought we'd do a compare and contrast on how these two very different shows tackle politics!

WARNING: while all care has been taken to stay politically balanced this episode does contain extremely strong language as well as extremely strong opinions on the Tory party bastards who have wrecked our country over the past 14 years... *

*Other political opinions are available*
