British comedy

HMO

Anyone else a fan? I like anything from studio sitcoms to panel shows.

My current favourites are 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, The Last Leg, Would I Lie to You, Taskmaster and Not Going Out.

  • Loads of great shows mentioned here, I’ll add RIPPING YARNS, Haze and I both loved it but only recently realised that so are we wirk8bg through the episodes on YouTube

    On the other hand some British 60s comedy was either blatantly racist and homophobic, or propagated perjoratuve stereotypes which contributed to the horrible attitudes of some in both of our families which cause problems to this day - thinking particularly of Rising Damp, It Ain’t Arf Hot Mum, Are You Being Served.
