I know many here are fans of British TV and of ‘Britcoms’, and I am not sure whether The Good Life is one of the loved Britcoms, but I thought I would post the sad news of Briers’s death in case it was.

Watership Down is a wonderful film and I recommend it. And the original Richard Adams book.

Wonderful actor. Once got to sit next to him at a luncheon in NYC. Wonderful man as well. I’ll miss him.

I'm a huge fan of Britcoms and have been since Monty Python hit the airwaves here in the early/mid 70’s.The Good Neighbors,as it was called here,was one of the great ones.And Felicity Kendall...it should be illegal for a woman to be that sexy.IIRC she was once voted at the top of a poll in Britain called something like “the thinking man's crumpet”.The entire cast was outstanding...brilliant,in fact.

I find it interesting that TV shows starring normal people yesterday, are suddenly old and dead a day later it seems. (timewarp) (time space continuum) (while there is time)

In the future, there will be “time no longer” Rev. 10:6

I take issue on that subject with those who think this is a mistranslation. It refers to the end of time reconing of this world and the return to eternity as functional reality.

IMHO anyway.
