sheri3004 Dec 2012 10:17am, 20 Dec 2012 15,013 posts	0 sheri3004 I liked Liver Birds, but then I thought all the 70s sitcoms were the funniest things ever. In the 70s. In my defence, I was very young at the time. Mind Your Language, anyone?? (I'm not sure if I should confess that I actually watched the first episode of this on Youtube the other day. Nostalgia value, but not much else to recommend it, really, unless of course comedy national and racial stereotypes are your thing, which clearly was the case for many.)

Regular listeners of FT will know about this one. What national 'treasure' do you feel would be better on a skip rather than on a pedestal?

Someone (an MK Dons supporter) proposed AFC Wimbledon, about whom everyone gets misty eyed but he hated.

Other nominations included Bruce Forsyth and Seb Coe.

We were discussing this on the Rugby Wire (whch unforgivably is *not* called "y wifren rygbi ") as Martin Johnson was nominated.

It was suggested that a wider audience might enjoy the challenge.
