No – That's Me Over Here!
''No – That's Me Over Here!'' is a British sitcom that aired for three series from 1967 to 1970. It was created by Barry Cryer, Graham Chapman and Eric Idle, and it featured Ronnie Corbett's first acting starring role, alongside Rosemary Leach, Henry McGee (who was at the time also playing the straight man in ''The Benny Hill Show''), Ivor Dean and Jill Mai Meredith. It was originally produced by Rediffusion for the ITV network, with its production being continued by London Weekend Television for the third and final series.

Critics disagree over the utility of the term "sitcom" in classifying shows that have come into existence since the turn of the century.

Neighbourhood
A neighbourhood (British English, Irish English, Australian English and Canadian English) or neighborhood (American English; American and British English spelling differences, see spelling differences) is a geographically localised community within a larger city, town, suburb or rural area, sometimes consisting of a single street and the buildings lining it. Neighbourhoods are often social communities with considerable face-to-face interaction among members. Researchers have not agreed on an exact definition, but the following may serve as a starting point: "Neighbourhood is generally defined spatially as a specific geographic area and functionally as a set of social networks. Neighbourhoods, then, are the Neighbourhood unit, spatial units in which face-to-face social interactions occur—the personal settings and situations where residents seek to realise common values, socialise youth, and maintain effective social control." Preindustrial cities In the words of the urban sch ...
