British Comedy Guide

Would be grateful of any recommendations.

Hi everyone.

Having recently discovering the excellent Still Game through these forums i was wondering which shows to hunt out next, i know there are many listed on the sitcoms page but i would like some advice please.
Below are a list of what i have at home.

Steptoe and son
Alan Partrdige
Fawlty Towers
Some Mothers DO Ave em
On The Buses
George And Mildred
Allo Allo
Are You Being Served
Dads Army
Bottom
Hi De Hi
Clarence
Still Game
League Of Gentlemen
Man About The House
Duty Free
Porridge
One Foot In The Grave
Spaced
Royle Family
Rising Damp
Only Fools
Till Death Us DO Part
Bless This House
Love Thy Neighbour
Aint Half Hot Mum

That probably covers most of them,though i have bound to have left some out. I Especially love the '70s stuff, so any ones i havent discovered yet would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Rich.

Red Dwarf?

Ever Decreasing Circles.

The It Crowd, Black Books, Hyperdrive (hit & miss) & Big Train (more of a sketch show but worth getting).

Try and get your hands on a copy of 'Two in Clover' starring Sid James, a forgotton and extremely underated sitcom. Also, try out 'Citizen Smith' You can get a copy of the series quite cheaply now. Citizen Smith is written by Only Fools writer John Sullivan.

Shelley, Ever Decreasing Circles and Dear John.

You won't regret it :)

You should definitely check out Coupling!

and Joking Apart and Black Books.

Cheers, Nil. Sean Lock is a great comedy actor/writer. Wasted on panel shows, methinks.
