Father Ted is IRISH, not British!

However, if is brilliant! Of the old classics I do like Only Fools, also Partridge, One Foot in the Grave, Blackadder and the rest.

More recently, I loved Goodness Gracious Me and The League of Gentlemen too

OFAH is timeless. Can't say that about many

I liked Young Ones and Bottom too back then - find painful to watch now.

And Men Behaving Badly these days, again doesn't stand test of time.


Hated Dads Army and Fawlty Towers. Didnt get Monty Python.

Loved the Inbetweeners recently - will I say that in a few years time ??

I'm Alan Partridge for me still the guv'nor - ask me again in 20 years

Big brother uk 2014! Cant stop watching it!

Twenty Twelve and The Thick Of It, have that satirical spin that Yes Minister almost perfected.

Have you seen much of QI, Miles? Stephen Fry is the host and it's really good, I've been watching it a bunch lately. Some of the comedians he has as guests aren't stellar, there's one woman who is never funny that is always on it for some reason, but it is very good trivia at the same time.

It's the best sketch show of all time
