British Comedy Guide

A Sitcom By Committee!

Let's pick the actors, settings, themes, studio based/narrative, etc.

1. Everyone suggest the lead role, can be anyone, dead or alive MUST BE LIVING AND WORKING, from actor to comedian. First 10 will be put to vote and then picked. After that we'll pick something else, like the setting?

2.OK, next we vote on the LEAD role, anyone who comes in second third becomes support cast, maybe? Who knows... not me!

1. Julian Barratt
2. Shania Twain
3. Reece Shearsmith
4. Sally Phillips
5. Christopher Biggins
6. Daniel Rigby
7. Morwenna Banks
8. Chris Barrie
9. Frances de la Tour
10.Sarah Alexander
11.Doon Mackichan

Julian Barratt.

Ooooooh good choice :)

Do they have to be alive?

No but they may give a more stiff performance if they're dead.

If we let them be dead won't we just keep remaking Porridge?

:D

That's me out then. Don't know alive people.

Ok, I changed my mind. Must be alive, think of it as something that can be commissioned or aired now!

Shania Twain

That don't impress me much Angry

I don't know what our budget is but someone dead would be cheaper.
If the lead character needs to be able to walk or talk etc then I would like to have Julie Walters.

Reece Shearsmith

I'd go with Julian Barratt. But for a more classic style sitcom I'd prefer Su Pollard.

Sally Phillips Lovey
