[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 441448, member: 23"] [I]To The Manor Born [/I]was essential viewing in our home when I was young (given its ratings, this probably held true for most British households) so Penelope was a significant part of my formative TV world. I was also hugely impressed with [I]The Good Life [/I]when I got round to watching it in full perhaps a decade and a half ago. Coincidentally, both series ended up on a very short shortlist of British sitcom suggestions for [USER=5079]@Crimson[/USER] very recently. TV adaptions of various plays gave a nice taste of her stage work. 1984's [I]Hay Fever [/I]springs to mind. And[I] The Norman Conquests[/I] is absolutely essential viewing.
