Re: Britains Top Sitcom
Yes, Red Dwarf for me as well. Fawlty Towers was good, but has been shown sooo many times, it's lost it's appeal for me...
Edit: Red Dwarf ended at 18. Man Behaving Badly at 16.

OK, can you think of any great sitcoms produced by ITV?

Re: Britains Top Sitcom
Please, please, please don't let it be Only Fools that comes out on top! Highly overrated IMO. I voted for Fawlty Towers, but would also like to see Yes Minister/Prime Minister come high up too. Paul Eddington was a top comedy actor. Still like The Good Life too.

Re: Britains Top Sitcom
Its being decided as we speak. Here is MY top 3
1. Only Fools and horses - Best ever easly doesnt resort to cheap humor or onne-liners and also has serious aspects e.g. Death, mis-carrage and the characters are more developed than any other comedy and have real depth! Image blackadder or dads army dealing with that! 7 seasons worth of gold.
2. Yes Minster - Underated great script which is secound only to the above. While is might not be the easyest comedy and hard to actually find funny for some people. I thinks its great. Also dispite what you might think you dont need to like politics to like this!
3. Fawlty Towers - Scripts may not be as good as the above but its great physical comedy of clesse!
Forget the actual results who did you want to win and why

Re: Britains Top Sitcom
I've re-opened up the poll for another few weeks, let others have a chance to vote who didn't vote previously.

Re: Britains Top Sitcom
One Foot In The Grave for me, mainly because Victor is my hero and my life is just as crap as his, only mine is real.

Re: Britains Top Sitcom
Actually the poll results are what i think will happen. Only fools, fawlty towers and blackadder in that order. Fair enough.
I dont like the title though It should be Most ppopular comedy as best is not really a good word for it. Especially since yes minster is not in the top 3
