This doesn't seem sensible, not sensible at all[^] This may well have no relevance at all to anyone not from the UK
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.
I'm all for a remake. When Arthur Lowe, John Le Mesurier, Clive Dunn, John Laurie, James Beck and Arnold Ridley all sign up to it, I'll go and watch it.

Well if anyone has experience of spending time with dangerously old men...

I sure have!

That's exactly my thought. You can't replace the cast. Terrible idea.

Hmmm, It worked originally because the people involved had lived through WWII and also it was closer to WWII so in general grand parents could explain to kids. While I am a big fan of Dads Army, I don't think it will work as expected the event (WWII) that caused it is no longer a common memory...(also can't 'they' think up anything else..)

Nope. All the good ideas were used up twenty years ago. Everything since then is either a remake, a re-launch, or a mash-up. :sigh:

Surely the 7th remake of the Batman story will be original! :doh:

I thought it was the prequel[^]? :) I guess we can also add follow-ups twenty five years after the show finished[^] to the list as well.

Oh, come on - anything with Bill Nighy in is bound to be funny.

I'm willing to bet that they tried to get The Big Yin for Frasier, and he turned it down -- but not because of ill health. I'll wait until there are clips on youtube, but I'm not holding out high hopes (I mean, they've cast that Jones woman -- it has to be cr@p).
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!
