Two British Classics

I was thinking about some old TV series that I enjoy a great deal: I Claudius and The Fall And Rise Of Reginald Perrin.

I Claudius was about events that took place during the lifetime of Claudius the Roman emperor. Derek Jacobi as Claudius, Brian Blessed as Augustus, Sian Phillips as Livia, John Hurt as Caligula, plus many others. A brilliant series.

The Fall And Rise Of Reginald Perrin was a comedy about a middle aged businessman who becomes bored with his life and starts to behave rather strangely. Every character seems to have their own catchphrase.

Have a good day at the office dear

I didn't get where I am today

Is anyone else familiar with these old TV shows?
