as an ex-pat working in various parts of europe - including dusseldorf - i can relate to quite a bit of the series

Barry was a legend. Timothy Spall can do all the great roles he likes but to me he will always be the loveable Barry.

His chat-up line to the two frauleins when out with Wayne on the pull: "Excuse, me? Would you like to come back to our hut?" still has me in stitches.

Loved it and you reminded me that I should perhaps do the same and dig out a box set from somewhere.
Cracking title tune as well.

Barry the radish. Great character, and top actor. Loved his tap dancing before they went to Spain.

Loved it! Great episode where Oz went on the lash with a load of Sunderland fans who were playing in Europe even though he supported Newcastle then woke up with them halfway back on a flight to Newcastle.

The writing, acting and timing were simply peerless.
Having them all stuck in a hut in Germany and drawing parallels with Coldutz was a complete stroke of genius.
Every character beautifully formed and for such an ensemble piece there was no dead wood whatsoever.
Brilliant and as they say, they don't make 'em like that anymore.
