On a lighter note, best comedy to watch?

[MontyVeda]

Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin was always my favourite, not because it was side-splittingly funny but because I always felt sorry for poor Reggie, there was a feeling of pathos running through it. The episode where Reggie almost achieved his dream of bedding Joan was the saddest of all, everything went wrong and you felt so sorry for him.

Gotta be the original with Leonard Rossiter

I recently discovered This Country.... it's a slow burner, but very authentic.

NSFW due to a few sweary words.

Another vote for This Country.

You beat me on Red Dwarf but I'll add

• Early Doors
• Ideal (Johnny Vegas)
• Brass
• I didn't know you cared

I'd forgotten about Early Doors. Brilliantly funny sitcom, with the odd poignant moment.

Game On.

Last of the summer wine. Red Dwarf, Hello Hello. There are a lot of old comedies out there.

Early Doors (BBC Comedy) by Craig Cash is definitely Worth a watch.
