Huh I had no idea it was inspired by a British show. Does til death do us part hold up today?

I didn't actually know that myself until I looked it up. I'd heard of All in the Family referenced and just assumed it was along similar lines yet not connected.

I haven't seen it in years. The follow-up, In Sickness and in Health, was more what I saw growing up. There are some episodes of that on YouTube, and I had a quick look - yep, still pretty funny. I miss the days when you could have phrases like 'Peruvian ponce' and 'Welsh poofter' in a TV show let alone in a single sentence.
