This show starred Elaine Strich (who I believe has been on the Cosby
Show once or twice) and Donald Sinden as the butler.  I believe it was
originally on ITV (commercial channel) in the UK.  I liked it for what
it's worth :-).

Correct.  Incidentally, Margot and Gerry had taken Tom and Barbara out to
dinner to celebrate that Gerry was selected as Managing Director of his 
firm.

"Sir" had taken Snetterton out to dinner, so everyone had assumed that 
Snetterton would be the new M.D., so Margot begins the Official Snub when
"Sir" comes over to tell Gerry he's the new M.D.

That was the same episode where Margot had an alarm system installed and
everyone kept setting it off, wasn't it?  Thus, it established the premise
that people in The Avenue were getting burglarized.  Supposedly, T&B were
the only ones with nothing to steal, so their house got trashed.

  Actually the series 'Yes Prime Minister' is a continuation of a series that

haven't seen it in ages, because I live in Salt Lake City and they have very 
limited tastes with british comedy that doesn't extend much more than 'Are You

around where my parents live have 'Yes Minister' or 'Yes Prime Minister' on the 
list of programs that they are showing.  What are some of the other programs 
that they are showing.  I would be interested to know.  Maybe I can give you 
some spoilers if you want on some of the programs.

Following "Bad News", Bad News reeased a single or two and played
live on "The Tube", a fairly OK music prog hosted by Jools Holland. At this
gig they mimed really badly and pretented to have a massive argument and 
split the band up. "More Bad News" is a sequel set about three or four 
years later, when the same reporter played by Jennifer Saunders tracks
them down in their "straight jobs" and gets them sponsorship for a
reunion tour culminating at the actual Monsters of Rock, Donnington, where
they get maimed by the audience. Fact and fiction are curiously mixed as
the band did tour and release records, and the reaction from the real
Donnington crowd was dead ugly. Who was playing a joke on who? Lemmy, Ozzy
and the Scorpions are all featured back stage at Donnington slagging Bad
News off but again is it a joke or do they object to a joke band on the bill?
It's all good stuff and having played in some crap metal bands I can tell
you its VERY true to life and painfully well observed. "I could play

>> Andy

But why would anyone use the name of a newspaper proprietor as an
exclamation? The obvious explanation is that God In Heaven (with a Cockney
accent -> Gord in 'eaven), sounds a little like Gordon Bennet the famous (at
the time) papparazzi, so that's where the expression came from, i.e. it was
both the explanations above.

This may be true but I believe that "Gordon Bennett" is actually a 
euphemismic contraction of "God in Heaven" as an exclamation 
although a working class Pommie could confirm this - if anyone 
admits to being one.  It seems to be favoured by Londoners e.g. Arfur Daly 
in "MInder"

Can't answer this question, but I have a dim ringing in my ears that
he will be doing new shows for Carlton Television -- the team that

I heard it on Radio 4 sometime this or last week.

You're both almost right.  I'd say that `sod off' is a milder and less

abrupt.

	The only way I think you can see it in the U.S. is to go down to the
video store, buy/rent "Blackadder III: Dish and Dishonesty, Sense and
Sensibility, Nob and Nobility", and enjoy.

	I think it's one of the funnier ones of that series (of course, that
may just be because it's on a tape with two of the less funny Blackadder
episodes); it was nifty to find a BA episode I haven't seen 20 times before.

Well, I can't say for certain, but "Gordon Bennett!" seems closer to
"God Bless!" than "God in Heaven!"
