    Nutters?
    Dinna think so. That woman is absolutely petrified of catching the dreaded virus. Prisoner in her own home being fed bad news 24/7 through the telly.
    It would be funny if it was not so serious.

    Ian I have been married into a Welsh family for 45 years....trust me nutters, but in a really great way. If you can get it look up a comedy show called "High Hopes" its totally funny and soooooo true to the Welsh, and I love it.

    Sorry but I just felt so sad for that poor woman. And she will not be an isolated case.

    Rab C was good up to a point then dramatically got very stale.
    Still Game took over as one of the best comedies around.
