Has anyone seen this? I'm thinking of getting a collector's set (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00005LE37/ref=pd_ys_ir_all_62/102-1293845-8468149?ie=UTF8)
But I want to know if it's even good before I get it.
Thanks!

Hi, just wanted to reassure you that a whole generation was raised on 'Some Mothers'. Admittedly, it helped to be juvenile enough to find lines like "the donkey's done a whoopsie in the corridor!" side-splitting stuff.
No, it hasn't aged well but Crawford was famous for doing many - all? - of his own stunts. And some episodes were very well written/performed, such as the one with the car stuck on the cliff and the RAF episode where Fulton Mackay cannot keep a straight face by the end. Perhaps that's just nostalgia and it's more patchy than I remember, but here's hoping you enjoy it anyway. :o)
