Just that. I was asked the same question in a survey earlier and chose "all creatures great & small" and was wondering what other people would like to see again?

I'd also love to see Blackadder, The Young Ones, Robin Hood, Cagney & Lacey, Auf Wiedersehen, Pet and basically anything from the 80's Grin

but how can you not love Rylan??

It requires very little effort on my part.

Thank you for letting me know that it's returning though. I may watch it and do my best to tolerate Rylan.

Going for Gold with Henry Kelly was ace...but it would be interesting to see whether it could even happen after Brexit. Maybe they'd have to do it by Skype Grin.

Cutting It. Loved all the series of that, Ruby was my fave character, I just wanted to give her a big hug.

River. Had Nicola Walker in it as a dead derective who her former partner saw/talked to. Could have had a 2nd series and she's my favourite actress at the moment.

Top of the Pops. I have no fucking clue whether we even have charts these days let alone what people are listening to. Actually, Sounds Like Friday Night was good a while ago, so I'll settle for that. Smile

Came on to agree with Firefly, but someone just reminded me of The Mole, that was great.
Being Human

Tv show resurrections are almost always hugely disappointing though! Just look at Birds of a Feather!
