Get Some In! (1975)
Was Great
This, as was noted in the previous comment was a great show, and may well have been Tony Selbys greatest character (barring the worst cockney rhyming slanging rag and bone man from the Good life)
However this actually was repeated on UK Gold in the late 80's early 90's from the pilot episode through to its final season. Although like most comedies from this time the later seasons output was of a poorer quality.
I think it should be noted that Robert Lindseys portrayal of the teddy boy was pure genius and deserves to be shown again.
This show also introduced Karl Howman (of Brush Strokes fame) in the later series as a replacement for Lindsey.
The Piglet Files (1990)
Great Show
This was always a great show but has rarely been repeated on British TV, this always seemed strange as Nicholas Lyndhurst is basically now a British institution!
It now looks like Paramount 2 on Sky will be showing it, so lets hope it'll finally get a DVD release (amazingly there is an NTSC version but as yet no PAL!!!).
If you ever get the chance to watch it make sure you do, this shows British spies aren't all James Bond (and came 10 years before Johnny English)
Kudos must all so go out to the actor who played Lewis, who only surpassed his performance of an utter buffoon in the film Love,Honor and Obey.
