The Office (US) -- the episode where Michael burns his foot on a George Foreman grill and Dwight ends up concussed.

PAM: Tell me why you want me in there.

MICHAEL: Will you come and rub butter on my foot?

:D

Fawlty Towers - Communication Problems

The Office - Series Two, Episode Five (Comic Relief Day)

Steptoe And Son - The Desperate Hours

ditto these

I'm Alan Partridge - To Kill a Mocking Alan

Peep Show - Local Zero (the one where Mark befriends a racist)

Curb Your Enthusiasm - The Group

Extras - Kate Winslett

Coupling - Remember This

The Simpsons - Homer the Heretic

If I could only have two for a desert island, they'd be Fawlty and Homer.

Ooo -- The Simpsons. Not seen many of the recent ones but the stand-out for me is Cape Feare, where Sideshow Bob is out on parole and the Simpsons have to become 'The Thompsons' in Witness Protection. It's genius, even for The Simpsons

"That's German for The Bart, The!"
"Anybody who speaks German can't be a bad man!"

:)

I go with the Extras (Les Dennis), also for the subplot rather than the celeb one.

The Office training episode.

Red Dwarf: Queeg.

Steptoe: Divided we stand.

Father Ted: A Song for Europe.

Seinfeld: The Outing.

The Comic Strip: Mr Jolly Lives Next Door

People Like Us: The Vicar or The Actor.

Likely Lads: The one with the football scores.

Great stuff!

Still thinking about many of the series I love (Hancock, DA, IAAHM, Hi-De-Hi!, etc etc) the immediate stand out of Only Fools for me has to be The Jolly Boys Outing ! :D

But I think my favourite line ever comes from Cheers . .

Sam - 'Do you ever picture me naked?'

Rebecca - 'Yes, on a slab with a label tied to your big toe!'

Cracks me up even typing it ! Laughing out loud

Oh Wow ! Happy 100th post to me !

The Office train day episode is superb. British comedy at it's very finest. Perfect performances and some amazing lines.

Back to Reality is pretty magic too. Really clever and very funny. Though for definitive I'd say 'White Hole'. Every character is on form, great story and very funny.

The Simpsons - Homer the Heretic. The one where Homer stops going to church.
