Being a Yank, my knowledge of British TV is severely limited. But from what I know, my favorites are:
Monty Python
Black Adder

People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.
But those letters are not silent.
They're just waiting their turn.

Tat, As an Anglophile, you really should get hold of the original TV serial of Brideshead Revisited. It is superb.tattuchu wrote:Being a Yank, my knowledge of British TV is severely limited. But from what I know, my favorites are:

Some of the skits in Little Britain fell flat for me. I asked the English friend who'd introduced me to the show, "Ash, am I missing something? Is there some cultural reference I'm not familiar with, maybe? Because I didn't find that skit the slightest bit funny." And his response was, "Dunno. It wasn't funny for me either." But then some of it was absolutely hilarious and, I thought, quite brilliant
