Britcoms anyone ???

Post by Gasman59 »

Anyone as nuts for the Britcoms out there as I am ??? I'm a huge "Are You Being Served?", Ab Fab, Vicar Of Dibley, Little Britain, Fawlty Towers, Monty Python ect... fan.

when I saw you had a site dedicated to comedy I knew you were ok... nice one

Though I have to say I'm not a huge fan of Are You Being Served? myself, but there are some great lines for sure.

Did you ever see Dawn French in "Wild West"? From what you've said, I reckon you'd enjoy it... (that's what the picture is from, and which also features Catherine Tate)

Like all those but Ab Fab. I also love The Office, Extras and quite a few others.

Has anyone seen those episodes of French and Saunders? I've seen one and it was quite funny but nothing since... must have been a special or something.

I rather like the smoking room, and also for some reason, this new show, Suburban shootout, kind of a cross between sopranos and dippy housewives :D

I got a few of their DVD's but wished they would release them in Series like they do everything else. I think F&S is hilarious !!

I capped a French and Saunders "Live" VHS last year and it got 500+ downloads... if anyone wants to see it (it's now out of "print") then say and I'll stick it up.
