Hi,
Can anyone post a top 10 of the best British comedy series ever ?
I find it pity that they release a 'UK Region 2' dvd with no subtitles at all, also the boxset is without.
Why do Brittish always want a 'uk only region 2'? The serie keeps selling, would be nice worldwide. Region 2 is Europe normally with subtitles for all European Citizens. I hate 'UK Region 2 dvds' :(
My Top Ten -
Fawlty Towers
Drop the Dead Donkey
Ever Decreasing Circles
The Office
I'm Alan Partridge
Black Adder
Only Fools And Horses
Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads?
Steptoe and Son
The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin
Just Lurking below the top 10 are -
Dads Army
Red Dwarf
Coupling
Bottom
The Young Ones
Porridge
Some Mothers Do ave em
Vicar of Dibley
The Good Life
The Detectives
Are You Being Served?

Steptoe And Son is my number 1 but the rest aren't in any particular order but i've left out loads of others including Dear John... ,Man About The House, Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em, One Foot In The Grave and The Likely Lads/Whatever Happened To The Likely Lads to name just some, i've never seen an American sitcom that i've even remotely cared for, the Americans make better films but we make better sitcoms but in any event the sitcom is an American invention anyway.
