Can't say am the most fanatical Minder viewer, though I have seen most episodes with Waterman. The one episode that I think stands out above all others that I have seen is "What makes Shammy Run". It has a very good plot, a story that twists and turns, and great dialogue (and of course brilliant humour). "The Syrup" stands out as a real character, but surely the wig specialist was mistaken when describing him as not having any distinguishing characteristics, a "face in the crowd".
shareVery hard too pick out fave episodes, but here are couple from each era (ie Terry's era and Ray's era)
Series 3 Poetic justice innit? (Terry)
Series 8 Too Many Crooks (Ray)
The first one with Ray was quite good as well (i think beginning of series 8)
I also liked the ones in between eras - as Terry was leaving and Ray was taken on by Arthur.
From series 6. Give us this day Arthur's Daily Bread. And the classic The Return of the Invincible Man - 'Let's leave him in a skip'! Also, the Ray episode where they go down to Brighton - "I've got a terminal illness in my body", "Where else could you have it?", but I've forgotten what that one was called.
shareIn no particular order:
Whose Wife Is It Anyway?
A Nice Little Wine
National Pelmet
The Old School Tie
The Beer Hunter
Dead Men Do Tell Tales
Dreamhouse
The Son Also Rises
Back In Good Old England
In
.. and bubbling under would be:
A Lot of Bull and A Pat On The Back
Senior Citizen Caine
Goodbye Sailor
Second Hand Pose
As you can perhaps tell, with only a few exceptions, Minder pretty much ran out of steam for me after the first three series.

Drinking is only good for fish & ME

To my original list I would have to add:-
Poetic Justice Innit
The Son Also Rises
You Need Hands
Sorry Pal Wrong Number
I like too many too write them down but I do like "Minder on the Orient Express" and "Poetic Justice Innit?" I love any Tony Hoare episodes really!
"I Can't Remember, I Can't Remember!" Roj Blake, Blake's 7.
Gordon P. Clarkson
My Favourit is "Sorry Pal,Wrong Number" (Episode 4 ,Series 4)
Watched "Poetic Justice Innit" a few times recently.
One of the scenes in court is brilliant.
The judges (James Cossins) expression when Smith tells him "Sorry M'Lord, ain't tryin to be funny, I'm right on offer here ain't I"

National Pelmet - Terry trying to sleep sharing a stable with a farting horse.Having grown up in a rural environment, I know the feeling. I thought I'd never stop laughing.
