This weekend final Ep of series. Really caused a stir thanks to you guys & led to lots interviews radio & press. A number approached BBC for a comment..Silence! No one's listening. So sorry they'll be no more ED's. Thanks all for amazing support. Be nice to get to 10,000 TTR...❤️

Over 7,500 people signed this already. Not sure whether or if the BBC will consider any of this but your appreciation and loyalty is magnificent. A heartfelt thank you to everyone. 'To The Regiment!....'

Really sad news that Rodney Lichfield aka Old Tommy passed away peacefully in his sleep Saturday aged 81, having been poorly for some time. We were blessed to meet and cast him as he was absolutely perfect. To you Rodders and To The Regiment it won't be the same without you. RIPx

It was a special time for us as writers and with such a fantastic cast too. It's so great you giving fans old and new the chance watch these scenes again. I hope they enjoy them almost as much a we did making them. Best wishes TTR...

Wonder what the figures are like on BBC4 when this clip alone has been seen 1.7million times. Mrs B Boys 2.4m on Xmas Day! 🤷‍♂️

Thank you for this really considered and well written piece. I think ED is perhaps nostalgic, but I hope and believe the reason why it resonates with many people is that its very core it's about love and compassion not cynicism and cruelty. Something we need now more than ever. X

For our latest opinion piece, I wrote about the joy of Craig Cash & @PhilMealey's 00's comedy Early Doors and why it needs to be considered one of the best British comedies of all time. @markbenton100 @ChrissyBotto @chesloza @MPeakeOfficial thecustardtv.com/why-early-door… #EarlyDoors
