another fry autobiography leads to here. no idea why the BBC didn't pick up on this one it seems as worthy, if not more worthy of going beyond pilot status than many of those early 80's comedy programmes.

reading it myself at the moment. after the first book i was looking forward to a bit of time off work to dedicate a few days to it.( day two; 50 pages left) great stuff. thank you Stephen.
Fun to see. They reused that joke about being brought up in a working class home that his parents has specially built on the grounds of their estate" on ABOFAL 2 when Stephen does Hugh's obituary.
I watched this on its first showing and still do the "what is love" skit with my friend when we've had a few. `never thought I'd see this again! Thanks for uploading!
this is surprisingly captivating and funny

They really loved that joke about the working class home built in the ground of parent's estate, didn't they?

@PolverUnK Definitely... I think I've heard them make that joke on about three different occasions!

It's good to things in their early stuff that came out again later, like the 'working class home' bit. ^__^

I love Stephen's accent as Nicholas. It's so close to his Browning accent
I'm wondering what it would have been like if this had been picked up instead of ABOFAL. Far more surreal, I daresay

well he joined Blackadder before ABOFAL...so its a good job this didn't get picked up.

I think I've just worked out where the inspiration for the premise of Ben Elton's "We Will Rock You" came from.
