Thanks for teeing this up, TT. Quite a nostalgic pairing for me, these two. I vividly remember waiting 3+ years for the second series (and that's a LONG time during your schooldays) and being beside myself with excitement when it appeared in early '79. You could say it was almost impossible for 'Communication Problems' to live up to my expectations. And it WAS a bit disappointing. All that "What?.....What?.....What?" stuff got on my nerves TBH. In fact, everything felt a little bit under par. BUT...along came 'The Psychiatrist" the following Monday and faith was fully restored. To say the least! |

"You're not sulking, I hope?"

I can't remember which episode this is. We've ruled out the builders and the deaf woman and also the psychiatrist since that must be the next one...

Ah - the first appearance of Terry the chef. Always thought he was a bit superfluous. |

And I never understand how you people had/have so much time to watch it. "You're not sulking, I hope?"
