Temat: For UK comedy series lovers

I'm a great fun of:
1) "Spaced"
( http://www.spaced-out.org.uk/about-spaced/whatisspaced... )
created by and starring Simon Pegg and Jessica Stevensson together with the comedians from the "Big Train TV" team,

2) "Black Books" ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0262150/plotsummary )created by and with Dylan Moran, with Bill Bailey and Tamsin Graig. The characters from "Spaced" appear in Black Books occasionally.

3) "Coupling" - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0237123/plotsummary

Typical witty and surreal British sense of humour. Can be found on youtube. Enjoy :)

Spaced is probably my favourite comedy of the last ten years, just shading League of Gentlemen and The Office.

The fact that the main character was an uber-geek called Tim who had a fixation with Gillian Anderson and a mania for spotting film references made me think that Simon Pegg had met me in the pub and based the series off me!

Black Books was also excellent.

To be honest with you, I couldn't stand 'Black books'.

Don't know either 'Spaced' or 'Coupling'.

Patrycja, have you ever heard of 'Father Ted'?

Ahah! Father Ted was fantastic - but I didn't include that because I was talking about recent years and that one goes back a bit further. Oh, and because it's Irish and not British, which is what Patrycja was talking about.

And talking of Ahah! Let's not forget "I'm Alan Partridge" either (the first series that had him living in the motel, not the poor second one, although that did feature one memorable scene which had him dry-vomiting his way through a motivational speech about fireplaces - one of the few times in my life when I thought I might literally die from laughing too much)

Warren, if you haven't checked out Spaced, you should start now.Tim Harrell edytował(a) ten post dnia 08.04.08 o godzinie 00:48

Wasn't 'Father Ted' made by Channel 4?

I haven't lived in the U.K. for over 10 years, so I don't really know what the latest 'buzz' is.

Very often the 'old' comedy is the best.
