IIRC, our local PBS affiliate used to show Red Dwarf, but they took it out
of "the rotation" right before I got introduced to the Britcoms.  I have
heard good things and need to watch it sometime.

AYBS was a hoot.  It has not rotated back on air here in a long time.  I
never would have thought about betting on what color Mrs. Slocombe's hair
was, but I bet that was fun as it often changed!  ;)  I was partial to her
junior, of course.

Mike
