Re: British Comedy
I've got all the time in the world for a bit of Jimmy Carr. His arrogant approach appeals to me greatly for some reason.
Used to like Peter Kay and Lee Evans, but they've turned out to be one trick ponies unfortunately.
As for television programmes, i'd choose Fawlty Towers & Only Fools & Horses over any of the rubbish that's shown these days.
The likes of Little Britain, Gavin & Stacey and Inbetweeners aren't a patch on the old stuff.

Re: British Comedy
Absolutely.
It's all the same old "listen to me play on my accent and talk through my nose, because it made you laugh on the first 2 dvd's" - I got bored of it pretty quickly.
Sure, Phoenix Night and Max & Paddy were amusing, but they're not comedy genius by a long shot.

Re: British Comedy
Plus One is worth downloading. It's is very weird, but I couldn't help watching it.
It's a C4 production. Can be found on the 4OD website.
