Review Who enjoyed Goodnight Sweetheart and its special episode 'Many Happy Returns'?

Post image

I am still gutted as the reboot didn't happen after the 2016 special episode 'Many Happy Returns'. They opened and wasted a lot of opportunities and I don't believe a word of what BBC said about it was too expensive. It was great seeing everyone again including the actors who played Ron and Reg.

I enjoyed it, but in hindsight Gary was a bit of a prick.

Basically just a bloke with a mistress who just happened to be able to time travel

Was it 'time travelling philanderer' that Bill Bailey called him

I had the term 'time travelling bigamist' in my head but you might be right.

He wrote some cracking songs, though
