Yes but it was so funny. I must say this is one of my favourates jsut
because of the dialogue classic Spike and Lynda

Day deams isn't one of my all time favourates but it was a good
episode. I'll argue with you about Love Money and Bridsead though -
what was wrong apart form the pigeons ? Actually this is the episode
that has my favourate PG background music in it - the bit when Bobby
is running out of the school - it really sounds liek some one
running.
