Brittas Empire was moderately funny and does not deserve to be on the same list of garbage as Allo Allo Hi de Hi Keeping up Appearances. Add Last of the Summer Wine instead.
Awful show. I remember a PA who used to greet you with good moaning without fail. If the windows could be opened and there were three of you spare she’d have been set free.
Even as a kid I remember finding the idea of all those hot young waitresses clambering over each other for the attention of Rene, a dumpy middle aged bald guy who treated his wife life shit, very unconvincing.

I like F Towers and Keeping Up Appearances. Don't be a comedy snob. Gentle humour / edgy humour - all good. Casting in 'Appearances was genius - Onslow - legend
