I do not know if this fits under British comedy exactly, but I enjoyed the movies featuring

Austin Powers!


Some of the tent and shadow scenes are quite funny.  Lots of the movies are funny!

@Devlyn
Be a good example of good behavior.  Always be kinder than needed.  Be tender to others.  You are as beautiful as the thoughts you think and the words that you speak.   Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding.  Knowledge and action shown without love is not impressive.  If you look for the good in people you will find it. Healthy relationships are so important to good living.  Serve others.

Good living, joy, unity, love, and happiness can come from following these practices: Never let selfishness or conceit motivate you.  Regard others as more important than yourself.  Do not limit attention to only your interests, but include the interests of others

It is not usually about how fast you transition, it is about how well you transition.

I doubt many people will have heard of this, but it's a radio comedy by Andy Hamilton, called Old Harry's Game. It's about hell, and Satan. But it's very funny.

Red Dwarf, The Young Ones and Father Ted are excellent but Rising Damp will always be my fave.  Leonard Rossiter is a comedic genius.  I'm sure most here have never heard of him but whatever, that's my pick.

Blackadder and Faulty Towers - both works of pure genius

Hello Everyone

Being a Brit myself, I can honestly say I have enjoyed all those mentioned over the last year on this thread especially:
Monty Python
Blackadder
Mr Bean
Keeping Up Appearances.

Also to go back to the 70s/80s if anyone remembers them:
The Dick Emery Show
Here's Harry (Harry Worth)

and to the 1960s:

Mr Pastry (Richard Hearne)

Hugs

Pamela  xx
