    Right on target, but Critics' Reviews missed the target completely...

    If you were a child in the 60's then you will nod like a Churchill dog throughout this series just as I did. If possible, watch it with one of your contemporaries, and you'll keep looking at each other knowingly, and grinning/chuckling all the way through!

    If you weren't a 60's child then you should watch it anyway, to discover how today's grumpy old farts actually tick.

    Unreservedly recommended.

    I don't have a clue what Critics' Reviews is on about - something else entirely...
