    Loved the early Dave Allen shows (Dave Allen at Large) in the 1970s. Unfortunately, he became very crude and foul - mouthed when he came back on to TV years later. Not sure what he was trying to achieve. Possibly trying to keep up with younger comics. Still, he was great in his prime.

      Rab C Nesbitt. It's based in Glasgow though, so it's unlikely people outside of the UK (even sometimes outside of Scotland lol) will understand the speech. But if you're lucky enough to 'get it', it's genius. The early years were absolutely hilarious. Gregor Fisher is without doubt the best drunk actor I have ever seen.
      I did not hit you. I simply high-fived your face.

        I agree that it's genius, but no one outside of Glaswegians will understand it, not even a lot of other Scots.
        I posted on another board that the episode called
        Semmitry
        , S06E04 should have won an award for being the best show I've ever watched dealing with cancer.

            "Coupling" hands down. It's my favorite of all TV comedies, not just Britcoms.

                      Roman's Empire. One off series in 2007. It had Chris O'Dowd and Nicholas Burns and it was hilarious.
