Weakest Episode?

I am a hige fan of TGL and find most of the episodes brilliantly wirtten and performed.
However, I was just wondering what people's least favourite episode is?
I have always found "Suit Yourself" to be rather below par, particlarly the rather prolonged dinner scene. Anyone agree/disagree?

"What's the matter Colonel Sanders - CHICKEN?"

Although the series may be brilliantly written, my post obviously isn't!!
Substitute "huge" for "hige", "written" for "wirtten" and "particularly" for "particlarly"..

"Away From It All"

ROCK STARS HAVE KIDNAPPED MY SON

It's my favorite British comedy show and I like the episodes, but I think if I have to pick one off the top of my head, it would be "Who's Fleas Are These?" Mind you, they just started the series again on my local PBS station for the first time in years, so I have to refresh my memory on the episodes and I might change my opinion to another episode.

I can't think of the name of the episode, but it's the one where Tom uses the extra money they made to buy something useless that will spin wool and Barbara get totally pissed at him for doing it without discussing it with her.

i think the episode where the journalist comes to interview them is pretty silly. why would a paper in Oxfordshire be interested in a story about surbiton? That is the kind of story that normally gets into local papers.

yhe episode where they are thinking of mov g house is odd too. They talka. Lot about missing the house, but nevera. Word about missing their friends and neighbours for i stance.
