How the hell did the vicar of dibley beat two of the funniest programs ever made (Fawlty towers & Dads Army) :o

The program is s***e and everybody knows that father ted should have been in its place in the top ten.

I`m really surprised Fawlty Towers didn`t get the top spot. Still, it seems the new generation of viewers saw it too dated.

To save me the bother of Googling, can you tell me what actually won? Surely it wasn`t The Vicar of Dibley????

Ta very much. No suprise about OFAH, but nice to see Blackadder coming second.

I wanted One Foot In The Grave to win, but even Richard Wilson said that it wouldn`t so I didn`t bother voting :D

The results are here - I voted for Blackadder and can`t believe that the Vicar of Dibley made the top ten, let alone finish at 4.

I thought it finished in 3rd place?

So it did, my mistake :/ - probably illustrates my unease at seeing TVOD ranked higher than the liks of Fawlty Towers and One Foot in the Grave. On some occasions, one sees things that scramble the cerebal cortex and leave you typing gibberish. :)

I recon that Richard Curtis was sitting at home with his phone on automatic redial , hoping that if the vicar of dibley was voted first , he might get another romatic comedy commissioned
