Best British Comedies

[Joey66]

STILL GAME - a masterpiece just beats Only Fools & Horses........ written by the main actors.....

 

[Bohemian Toffee]

Chris Morris did a short called My Wrongs. It was about a man who was driven mental by his friend's dog after he went to look after it for the day.

Dark and funny. Typical Morris.

Stars the always excellent Paddy Considine, great shout

The Sooty Show is my youngest lads favourite thing in the whole world.

We`ve been to see it twice, live on the North Pier in Blackpool this year and are going again in October.

It`s still just as good as ever and the way they very subtly infuse adult black humour into it, is very clever.

I enjoy it just as much as my lad lol

Hold on, your lad is 32……

C'mon, let's hear them.


No poll - obviously humour is very subjective and all shows have their devoted fans


The ones I can always keep coming back to:

Black Adder (S2-S4)
Peep Show
Fawlty Towers
The Office

No Fools and Horses ?
No Till Death do us Part?
No On the Buses?
No Dad's Army ?

Red Dwarf
Python
Father Ted
Absolutely Fabulous
Young Ones
Peep Show
Mr. Bean
League Of Gentleman
The Office
others...

Pheonix Nights??????

I can't help it, and I'm sorry, but Carry On films never fail to make me laugh. Carry on Up The Khyber being my favourite. It's pure seaside postcard style humour full of innuendo.

I've never worked out why or how but Mrs J's best mate always fancied Sid James , closely followed by Lord Sugar .

Weird!

Weird!

There is a resemblance between the two!

 

[anjelikaferrett]

So silly but also so funny.

 

[Yarrgh]

The IT Crowd

Garth Merengies Dark Place

What We Do In The Shadows

Basically anything with Matt Berry in it lol

I think that he's a comedy genius.

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Pheonix Nights??????

Never seen it, which is ironic considering where I'm located. Being in the US I'm not hip to everything, especially anything newer...more disappointed I missed out BlackAdder and Fawlty Towers but they're pretty much "gimme's" I'd think.

Some others would be The Thin Blue Line and, at the other half's request, Coupling.

Spaced launched the careers of Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, and Edgar Wright. Nira Park produced all of Wright's projects.
