You are an absolute legend! Thank you very much for that! :)
I am looking for an old English TV show comedy. I think it was set around a village in Medieval times. There was a gimmick each show I think where there was someone who sat at the entrance to the village and a visitor would always ask him his name and receive a humorous response. One joke I remember was when he was asked his name (I can't remember his actual name but i'll call him John for now), and this person replied John the Evasive. When the visitor asked him why they called him that he replied "Who wants to know?". I am sorry that I can't remember any more except that it would have been showing in the 80's, maybe mid to late.
