Oh what a beautiful mourning is without a doubt one of the funniest episodes of the show. We get a great concept, great lines, and an array of comic talent, that any show would have loved.
We learn more about the Steptoe family, and see the return of some wonderful characters. Rita Webb and Mollie Sugden in particular are great fun. If only we'd seen more of them.
The scenes of the greedy family rushing back from the funeral and fighting over the possessions are great, but it's Albert's line of 'that's the first drink I've ever had on him' that makes it. Nice to see the two characters on the same side.
Classic. 10/10
