For anybody who is confused, Mr Shambles had changed his nickname this morning to Basil.

The sod has now changed it back and that means this thread now looks as irrelevant as the one entitled Kate Moss's Handbag.

Had to be you.

Just had a chuckle and went on with life.

Basil is a favourite in our house, even with my 12 yo (almost 13 yo) daughter.

Bumpkin as long as you don't change your name to Sybil we'll be right

I didn't see him as Basil either (apparently it was only a temporary aberration.)

I used to love 1 foot in the grave but my wife couldn't see the funny side of it

I did type in the actual phrase.. and was quite surprised when these appeared **** (don't think that word is classed as particularly offensive in Australia)

Ahh One Foot in the Grave, my fave was when he hired the skip and everybody else filled it, somebody even put in a 2CV. I was helpless watching that episode

I liked the one where someone stole his video and then rang up a couple of days later complaining it was hard to use and wondered if he still had the instruction book...
