Welcome back to The Worms That Turned - a podcast where we watch old UK TV sitcoms and decide whether they are suitable for our modern, woke world.

In the second part of our deep live into Sorry!, the sitcom that firmly established Ronnie Corbett’s comedy persona, we finally get around to talking about some actual episodes of Sorry!, having spent far too much time debating who is most like Ronnie Corbett’s character in real life*

But most importantly, we decide whether Sorry! belongs in the Comedy Hall of Fame or the Dustbin of Comedy History.

* It’s Will. Obviously.

Hello! And welcome to The Worms That Turned - a podcast where we watch old UK TV sitcoms and decide whether they are suitable for our modern, woke world.

We’re back for another two-parter, in which we take a long, withering stare at the classic Ronnie Corbett sitcom, Sorry!, about a middle-aged librarian still living at home with his domineering mother.

In this episode, we compare our middle-aged lives with Ronnie Corbett’s character, Timothy Lumsden, and feel only slightly better about our own careers, relationships, and lifetime achievements.

In this episode, Will discovers that recording a podcast is far cheaper than actual therapy, and Rob reveals the shocking fact he is slightly taller than average height.

Is Britain’s 77th most popular sitcom* of all time overdue a cultural revival or has it aged as badly as Ronnie Corbet trying to play a man ten years younger than himself? Join us and find out!

* According to the Top 100 Best British Sitcoms (2004).

Welcome back to The Worms That Turned, and part two of our deep dive into The Good Life.

In this episode, we decide whether The Good Life belongs in the Comedy Hall of Fame or on the Compost Heap of Comedy History.

Are Tom and Barbara the perfect prototype eco-friendly couple, or insufferably smug, middle-class boomers playing at being poor? You’ll have to listen to the end to find out!

Plus, in a special bonus debate, we judge which was the better time to be alive – 1975 or 2025!

WELL, THANK YOU VERY MUCH..!
