as for Vicky Pollard.....I'm still laughing...
It took it's time to reach America......but, it is FRIGGING HILARIOUS......now I realise that Danozeman was really Kenny Craig....

Vicky Pollard is if anything understated -- the true british "chav" is worse.
'it is FRIGGING HILARIOUS'
Yeah I know...
Yeah but - no but - Yeah but - no but - Yeah but - no but - Yeah but - no but -
some of the stuff raises a laugh
but the bloke needing to suck on his moms tits in Church is that really funny
I personally think were desperate for comedy in this country and everyone laughs at the drop of a hat
There penning a new spitting Image as we speak so Blair best get ready
long live real proper comedy
ie dads army
steptoe and son
only fools etc
Personally I do find the "bitty" sketches quite amusing...If only to see the shocked faces...
I agree that it's not 100% funny, although IMO it reaches maybe 85/90% which for a sketch show is pretty high.
Again, IMO, some of the older stuff missed the mark too....
Steptoe...agreed very funny
Only fools....ditto
Dad's army.....did nothing for me
Last of the summer wine...ditto
Are you being served...ditto
Morecambe and Wise.....Very funny
All just different opinions I guess...

A pity "Chewing the Fat" and "Still Game" don't get a wider audience they put "Little Britain" in the shade.
[andy] Yeah I know........ [/andy]
i say that all the time, the missus whack me when i say it in public 
'you sound stupid saying that', 'yeah i know' over and
over
Yep very funny & nothing wrong with bitty.
The best sketch is with andy & Lou
"I want them" "what you want breast ?" "yeh" (come out of hospital with breast)
"I don't like um " "I look a pillock"
Erm...... at the risk of being called a philostene and ousted from the forum...
I don't get it.
ok vicky is worth a chuckle (the first time) but the rest? I am quite happy to point and laugh at chavs, but the only thing that irritates me more
than chavs is un funny comedians.
Someone else pointed out the lack of decent british comedy at the moment and I would have to agree, apart from My Family and Coupling I can't
think of a new comedy I've actually laughed at for ages.
Uk Gold is definately a good thing, long live blackadder etc

Anbody here watch "Love soup" last year --- One Foot in the Grave reborn for a new generation.
No I don't just watch it cos Tamsin Greig is in it but it helps.
I dont like it........... i want that one.
My gaffer used to live in a roughish part of Bristol and has assured me there are real life vicky pollards around.
My fave comedy programme that one. Ive got first series on audio CD (it was the Radio4 edition). Absolutely brilliant.
I think she's good as a comedy actress along with Sarah Alexander. They are in The Green Wing on E4 but I really liked her as Fran in Black Books and have all of them on dvd. I never got into Little Britain or The Office, they both made me cringe.
Sarah Alexander mmmmmmmmmm nice!
The office is creepy much too near the truth not at all funny.
Write the theme tune, sing the theme tune...........
123, youre back in the room.
Little Britain - Pure TV gold - like it a lot.
I want monster trucks.
'The Goodies' - Now that was funny. (Remember the kitten sketch and 'Goodies and the beanstalk'?). Why do they not repeat them?
They were as good as Python IMO.
I think 'Chef' was great as well.
Never did find Ab Fab funny at all.
Cheers
Mark
