Open All Hours

"Open All Hours" is a British television sitcom that originally aired from 1973 to 1985, created by and starring Ronnie Barker and David Jason. It depicts the humorous daily life of Albert Arkwright, a cautious and somewhat annoyed corner shopkeeper, and his inexperienced nephew Granville. Set in a small, traditional shop, the show explores the dynamics of small-scale retailing, customer interactions, and rural community life, combining comedy with keen observations on human behavior and everyday problems faced by shopkeepers. Its charm lies in witty dialogue, memorable characters, and nostalgic portrayals of a bygone era of local shopping.
