I am sorry but I don't have my DVD set in front of me at the mo ,moving ya know, so I don't know the names of some of them.

German week hands done favorite episode. Its got great set ups and zingers, and the dancing.

The Robbery? Where they dress up as the Gumby Gang. "Wadda Ya know he godda da false legs."

The episode where GB advertises with a video and they use Brahms's face but the nurse's deep voice. Well Peacock, Brahms, Slocomb, and Humphries dress up at a resturant. Humphries dresses as a Bishop. "Its all go in Church." "Just taking a confession wont be long."

The clock? Where Granger has the anniversary dinner, some great drunk Betty moments.

The Takeover? Where they pretend to be stock holders and John is the cook." "Do you think you can play a one legged Nigerian tap dancer?"

Change is as Good as the rest? Where they switch to selling Toys.

This one I don't really like the episode but its got a great scene at the end where Peacock buys the Ladies clothes because he is going to a fancy dress party and has two extra tickets and John and Molly go "There this little number I've been dying to try on. Mrs. Slocombe are you Free? If you help me with my dickie and studs.

Roots? Where they sing those bad songs about the country people.

Where they bring in the boxing ring in because Peacock's got a boil on his butt. I thought it was HILARIOUS that Betty knew all the wrestling moves though.

The one where John is accused of stealing money from the till and they have a trial.

I hate the trial episode. They're all so gleefully mean to poor Humphries it's actually embarrassing. I don't know what the writers were thinking when they came up with this one.

Hands down most hilarious: The one with the Punch and Judy show. Trevor Bannister has me on the floor in stitches with that one. I didn't know until recently that that was his last episode with the show. He went out with a bang, for certain!
