There's talk of bringing back updated versions of what, at the time, were popular comedy programmes, such as Blackadder and Fawlty Towers.
However, comedy changes with time. What my father found belly achingly funny (Laurel and Hardy, etc.) left me luke warm. I wonder, given these programmes were popular 20 plus years ago, whether the younger generation will appreciate what my generation laughed at?

Given Cleese is now the epitome of what he once pilloried a new Cleese Farty Towels will end up as Farty.
As for Rowan Atkinson, I suggest he wouldn't be interested in a rehash. and he doesn't have an massive ego like Cleese.
Re-runs would be a dangerous move. Political incorrectness could cause irreversible trauma and chronic humour failure...
"Re-runs would be a dangerous move. Political incorrectness could cause irreversible trauma and chronic humour failure." Don't be daft.
