So, it comes as exciting news that one of the shows creators, Graham Lineham, has hinted at a return of the show…in the form of a musical!
Speaking to the Radio Times, Linehan said: “I would never bring back the TV show, because of the risk you poison people’s memories of the original.
“But if you were to come up with a completely new format, I think it would be worth doing. I have this vision of a dance number, with spinning cardinals.”
However, another co-creator of the show, Arthur Matthews, is “not as convinced” that it would work.
Ah, Feck!
What do you think?
