Birds of a feather is my favourite Uk show. I love it and the leads. I am so happy at a possible reunion. I practically wet myself. The bbc is always repeating this show and its always on satelitte. I'm one of the lucky one who has all but a few episodes on tape. And thats a lot seeing as the were 9 series.
Best episodes:
1) Dorien visits the psychic
2) the ghost in the house
3) Dorien does "like a virgin"
4) Sharon impersonates Dorien for her publisher
5) the planned activity weekend
6) Dorien becomes a shopoholic
7) Garth sleeps with doriens niece
8) The girls go to Hollywood
Basically the best episodes have dorein at the forefront

You're lucky to have all on tape, I'd kill for that lol

My fave episode is the one where Sharon is dreaming at Xmas & in her dream she is a rich glamorous snob with blonde hair, Tracey is a common slob from Edmonton (like Sharon in real life) & Doriean is Sharons maid LOL hilariosu ep, aint seen it in years but sooooo wish UK Gold would show it again.

Other goodies are Dorien singing 'Like a Virgin', the three of them being trapped in a warehouse for a few days & the one when Sharon & Tracey think George Hamilton is their dad LOL

Its your turn Heather, no Heather its Heathers turn... Heather!!! ~ Heathers

The Xmas one and the george hamilton one are the christmas specials. The George Hamilton one is hilarious i ahve that one too. Cracks me up.
I will see if anyone i know knows how to copy videos . they may not be great quality but i could see if i could copy them for you. Are you from Uk? i guess you must be unless they show this around the world.
otherwise, watch out on sky ukgold or bbc1 - they used to repeat them in the afternoons.
later

I am a huge birds of a feather fan to and wish they would hurry up and release the rest of the series on dvd but it doesn't look like thats going to happen. Are they currently showing it on UK Gold?
I would love to see it repeated on BBC 1 again in the afternoons, much better than constant repeats of diagnosis murder! I seem to remember they started showing it again in 2001 but then they gave up half way through, typical!

I know and they bleeped some of the swearing out.
Season 1 is on dvd but none others.
hope they reunite for x mas special this year

Here's some of my favourite episodes:

When Sharon blew up the kitchen and she and Tracy moved in with Dorien.

When Tracy is on a diet and Dorien tries to seduce the gay fitness instructor.

When Sharon takes driving lessons.

When Sharon pretends to be 'Pussy Golightly'.

And when Aunt Sylvie came to stay - with her bell!

Seem to remember not much liking the episodes where the husbands featured heavily. Not a fan of series 7 at all and was pleased when they ended up back inside. Also didn't like it when they moved house - although the kitchen was practically a replica of the old one!

I'm quite lucky actually cs i think i av nearly every 1 on tape cept 4 about 3 i ain't seen before. But i'm not as keen on the later ones as earlier. I think 1 of my favs is Oaky coaky karaoke, wher Dorien sings like a virgin and i think most of the xmas specials r great and the 1 wher sharon blows up the kitchen.

Which episode was it that Dorien sang "Like a Virgin"? I'm re watching on YouTube and would love to see that episode again. Had to be one of the best 😆
