I've always loved Till Death and Alf Garnett, but in my opinion that episode isn't one of the best. Spike is great in it, of course, but it's apparent that Johnny Speight let the Milligan lunacy run away a bit too much; particularly towards the end. Rather too much Q8 than hitchen sink realism.
This is one of my favourites and I think it showcases the series better:
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
