I never used to find it amusing, but having watched a few episodes lately I realise it is more documentary than comedy.

The original cast were pretty good but it has dated ... all the deaths of various cast members and subsequent replacements have ruined it.

I remember watching it a few times as a kid but not thinking that much of it, the same as Some Mothers Do Have Them. Having said that Compo, Clegg, Foggy and Nick could have been interesting to see.
