Any thoughts?

What do YOU want?

How about including The Fast Show, and/or Spaced? And what about Father Ted?


By Sven of Nine on Friday, May 16, 2003 - 6:35 am:

I actually wrote to Phil about my initial concerns re a board for something like Father Ted way back when the board started - it's one of my favourite sitcoms of the last 10 years. I did nothing then because of the show's content, but thinking about it now it is possible - just not yet in the immediate future. Fast Show and Spaced may follow too depending on how things go.

Thank you to whoever removed the double episode postings on "Monty Python" :)


By The Argument Clinic on Thursday, May 22, 2003 - 1:47 pm:

No they didn't!


By Sven of Nine on Thursday, May 22, 2003 - 2:15 pm:

Yes "they" did...

I always loved "The Young Ones" Rik, and Vivian, and Neal(you hippie). They always had good music too.

Nobody ever mentions Mike or Alexi Sayle (and no, I wasn't being sar-cos-TIC). But I'm game- perhaps if there's interest they should merit their own board. Vegetable Rights and Peace!!!


By Sven of Nine on Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 6:11 am:

Well, I've set up the brand new all-purpose multi-surface Kitchen Sink on the title page (the one with the large friendly letters in the title), which is now ready and waiting.... and lonely.


By Miko Iko on Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 9:50 am:

Lonely no more!


By Sven of DRINK on Thursday, June 12, 2003 - 11:05 am:

Thanks. I haven't seen many episodes of the Young Ones, but I'll see how the little board develops.

And for the more keen-of-eye among you, I've set up boards for a new show, following popular demand and much hand-wringing. Enjoy!

What do we want? Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean! Mr. Bean!


By Sven of Nine on Saturday, June 14, 2003 - 4:28 pm:

Hmmmm, I wonder what the RA Fan Club want me to put up next? "The Thin Blue Line" perhaps. :O


By Alice on Sunday, June 15, 2003 - 9:51 am:

What about 'The Good Life'? Or do we all know the words of all the episodes by heart now?

Or is that not the sort of thing you mean?

Does anyone here remember two (in my mind) priceless British comedies.

Firstly Citizen Smith starring Robert Lindsay, the leader of the Communist Tooting Popular Front.

And

Get Some In, a show about National Service in the RAF during the 1950's. Tony Selby who played a Sergeant in "The Detectives" was Corporal (later Sergeant) Marsh, Robert Lindsay was one of four guys who were drafted into the RAF. He was a Teddy Boy.


By Douglas Nicol on Thursday, October 09, 2003 - 12:06 pm:

Also, a show that deserves mention was from Channel 4 called 'Spaced', filled full of cult TV and Film references along with a lot of other stuff.

Re:Absolutely Fabulous
Methinks you should add a thread/converstion for Series 5,Sven, as the BBC has shown this in the U.K recently...!


By Douglas Nicol on Saturday, March 20, 2004 - 10:49 am:

What about a thread for Men Behaving Badly.


By Douglas Nicol on Friday, May 07, 2004 - 9:30 am:

Another one that might be worthy of inclusion is Black Books.


By R W F Worsley (Notanit) on Thursday, September 21, 2017 - 9:47 am:

Would Horrible Histories count?


By R W F Worsley (Notanit) on Friday, September 22, 2017 - 10:38 am:

How about Yonderland?


By R W F Worsley (Notanit) on Sunday, August 19, 2018 - 8:12 am:

Any chance of adding The Navy Lark to the Radio Comidies section?
