* SeasonalRot: The show's 1972 colour revival, which coincided with the revival of other 1960s sitcoms like ''Series/SteptoeAndSon'' and ''Series/TheLikelyLads'', was less topical than the original B&W series, mainly because writer Johnny Speight felt he could no longer wait till the last minute before submitting scripts (and also because he himself was becoming less interested in politics). However, this was also the series' downfall, as viewers noted the decreased topicality of the plots, in addition to which the satirical elements were noticeably less vicious than they had been in the 1960s. At around the same time, Dandy Nichols (who played Else) was having problems with attending the live-audience recordings due to increasingly poor health, which led to Else being written out (in-universe, she moved to Australia). This in turn led to Alf's neighbours, Min and Bert, getting more air-time. The show's rating began to suffer and when it became clear that Nichols was not going to return, it was cancelled.

** Somewhat averted with the sequel/aftershow ''In Sickness and in Health'', which was noticeably less political than its predecessor from the start, and only survived for as long as it did because Speight was told to tone down the overly racist content.
