[mala_D]

While the "mass debate" about imigration ranges amongst us I thought I would provide some light relief. <img src="/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

 

Britain's Best Sketch & "Light Entertainment" Shows:

 

Here's a selection of favs:

Fist of Fun

[Big J R]

Oh, and I forgot

 

"Love Thy Neighbour !"

[mala_D]

Get the point, JR. I get the point.

Maybe we're not ready to persue this one yet.

 

Mind you, I forgot the brilliant Q series by Spike. "Pakistani Daleks" wasn't it? "Put him in the curry".

[Rushy]

porridge.. top programme..!

 

oh, &one not far from J R's old heart!

[Big J R]

Can I report "Goodnes Gracious Me" to the Race Relations Board ?

[color:"red"]

If I WAS racist, I'd find that programme offensive.

[color:"blue"]

(Think about it...........) [color:"black"]

[mala_D]

Hang on Hang on lads.....

You're all doing Sitcoms again!! [except JR's above]

Go to the other post.

 

Aint you read the thread's title??

 

I'll say it again:

 

Britain's Best Sketch & "Light Entertainment" Shows

....meaning anything else "comedy related" that ISNT a sitcom. Christ! <img src="/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

[Mr Happy]

Monty Python by a mile!

 

Goodness Gracious Me was also excellent.

Rising damp!

Glad to see Absolutely's been mentioned already. Love the show, and most people have ever even heard of it.

[mala_D]

I've got quite a few of 'em on tape, Badger.

Callum Gillhoulie [?] was a great comic creation that should have been developed further.

Played an episode yesterday funny enough, and when the tape over-ran it caught a news item about Allied POW's being released from Iraq. FROM THE FIRST GULF WAR!!!

Blimey..is it that long ago?

Callum Gilhooly (I think that's how it was spelt - he spells it out in one episode) was based on a real person that wouldn't leave the Absolutely team alone. I've got a couple of episodes on video somewhere too - care to do a swap?

[mala_D]

Yeah! When I've got time to dig out and "collate" which episodes I've got then I'll let you know. I've got quite a few shoved in various corners of the house.

I once went to LWT studios to see them film an episode. Mightily entertaining. And that was just the bits that never made the final cut.

Meanwhile I'll also try and find the one where he spells his name out and perhaps post it up here for all to enjoy the wonders of Absolutely.
