Not the answer I am sure, but my mate wrote the novels.

I am racking my brains and on tenterhooks so I shall subscribe to ensure I find out.

[albaqwerty]

I tried to cheat and googled. One of the options was Yale University :)

I'm guessing same producer or director.

[Gromit]

Richard Briers was in 'em both, but I don't think that is the answer you want.

[Postdog]

I know, Tinker Dill lived in the shed at the bottom of the garden!

[piggynose]

keep trying, you´ll kick yourself when you find out

[albaqwerty]

How about the name of a character in Lovejoy was the same name for one of the pigs or chickens or goats?

[wolf63]

Richard Briers was in both of them and they were BBC programmes - or is it something more devious?

[Barmaid]

Miriam?

[Gromit]

Again not the answer you are after, but 'The Good Life' was a 1971 American TV series staring Larry Hagman, and Ian McShane starred in Dallas.

[piggynose]

this is going to be a long thread.

[albaqwerty]

Ian McShane recorded the song The Good Life (a la Tony Bennett) ??

[wolf63]

There are two "O"'s in Lovejoy, The Good Life and Common?

[piggynose]

still waiting for the answer. might need to give you a clue soon

[wolf63]

The title of your thread is not written proper like - is this intentional? Is this a clue?
