Any recommendations for comedy DVDs for a five year old with a developed sense of humour?

They already have and love Mighty Boosh, Fawlty Towers, The Goodies and Father Ted. They also like My Family, but I have to watch this DVD too.

I'm thinking Laurel and Hardy, possibly Will Hay and Only Fool and Horses (any suggestions for a particular series). Any other ideas?

Laurel and Hardy very good. What about Blackadder or Morecambe & Wise?

(I always think a blind girl with Polio could take him in a fight).

I'm sure you'd try.

You use public transport. :O :O

What happens if you bump into leftie types?

Yes. Always.

I wouldn't know who's left or right because it's public transport, and as such everyone keeps to themselves.

My uncle committed suicide by walking down the tube tunnel at Turnpike Lane. The poor old driver was off work for months after. :(

Pretty lucky driver; many never return to work.

I imagine you being driven around London in a big black shiny Rolls Royce like Lord Alan Sugar.

Laughing out loud If only!

(It'd be a Bentley though.)

Father Ted

Elliot's little-ish cousins talking about Father Ted is hilaaarious!

Do they put on comical Irish accents?

Yep!

Ace.

I was driving through Leicestershire yesterday and I saw a sign outside a pub which read, "Pie Night - Every Fri". It tickled me for some reason.

I know several pubs that should have "Pie-Eyed Night - Every Night" advertised. I thank you. Unimpressed

Hee-hee! ;)

How did he get the chance to do it three times without anyone stopping him?

Well, it could've done without the woman being thrown against the window 3 times. :P
