As some of you know, Cosby was based on 1990-2000 Britcom One Foot in the Grave. I haven't seen too much of OFITG, and have seen none of Cosby (the former was popular in Australia, don't know about Cosby).

How different were the two shows? Are we talking Man About The House/Three's Company (name/cultural changes, otherwise mostly the same word-for-word), or Til Death Us Do Part/All In The Family (more of an adaptation rather than a copy).

Is One Foot in the Grave a timeless classic? We get stuck into the nineties sitcom and discuss who is the bigger git, Richard Wilson or David Renwick?

In Part 2 of our look at One Foot in the Grave we continue to analyze our specific episode and break down the show as a whole. Eric Idle gets a bit of a bashing and we look at some of the comedy guest stars that turned up on the show.
