34. COME BACK MRS NOAH
Welcome to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST
In space, no one can hear you laugh...
Prepare to boldly go where not many people want to go, as ALEX and ROBERT explore the 1977 pilot episode of Croft & Lloyd's COME BACK Mrs NOAH
Its a sci-fi comedy that was ahead of its time but a little bit too old fashioned as MOLLIE SUGDEN, in the title role, gets blasted into space in the year 2150.
Its one from the archives... but should it have stayed there?

Spooky goings on as ALEX and ROBERT talk about GHOSTS the supernatural sitcom from the EX-HORRIBLE HISTORIES cast (now known as THEM THERE).
Running from 2019 to 2023 staring and created by MATHEW BAYNTON, SIMON FARNABY, MARTHA HOWE-DOUGLAS, JIM HOWICK, LAURENCE RICKARD and BEN WILLBOND and co-staring CHARLOTTE RITCHIE, KIELL SMITH-BYNOE, LOLLY ADEFOPE and KATY WIX the show tells the story of a group of eccentric ghosts and the long suffering couple trying to coexist in the rambling, falling apart, Button House.
A show so good it needs an extra long episode to discuss it all!

VWOOOORP! VWOOOORP! VWOOORP!

32. ASYLUM
Welcome to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST
Prepare for insanity as we revisit the 1996 surrealist sitcom, ASYLUM created by EDGAR WRIGHT and DAVID WALLIAMS and written by WRIGHT, WALLIAMS and the cast - including JULIAN BARRATT, SIMON PEGG, JESSICA HYNES and NORMAN LOVETT.
It’s weird, surreal and dark… but is it funny? ROBERT and ALEX do the hard work so you don’t have to as we take a deep dive into this oddity from the archives.

PLEASE NOTE: We had a mysterious sound issue at the time of recording (which turned out to be a faulty microphone). Apologies for the light crackle in places!

31. VALENTINE'S SPECIAL GAVIN & STACEY -v- AS TIME GOES BY
Welcome back to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST
Its Valentine's Day and love is in the air so to celebrate ROBERT TURNBULL and ALEX LYNCH do a compare and contrast of two classic, romantic comedy sitcoms; AS TIME GOES BY and GAVIN & STACEY.
Is there a meet-cute? Does anyone dash to the airport? Are there crossed wires or mistaken identity? Does boy meet girl, boy get girl, boy loose girl, boy get girl back? Or does girl do all the hard work?
We look at the tropes, characters and set ups in these two shows and ask if they really do embody rom-com.

30. Blackadder 40th(ish)
Welcome back to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST
Blackadder is 40! (well, 40 and a bit!)
From writers RICHARD CURTIS and BEN ELTON, staring ROWAN ATKINSON and TONY ROBINSON (to name but a few) BLACKADDER tells the story of The Blackadder Dynasty, one of the most important and influential families in British history.
Starting in 1983 and spanning into the new Millennium, BLACKADDER is made up of 4 series, a couple of specials, sketches and a (short) film, so there’s a lot to talk about. Your hosts ROBERT TURNBULL and ALEX LYNCH do their best to cover all iterations of this classic comedy.
