I grew up on a diet of classic BBC sitcoms, cult TV/film, Dr. WHo, Hammer Horror, Gerry Anderson and old TV novelisations from the unupdated school library. I hope to be a writer or a comedian. My favourite shows are The League of Gentlemen, Phoenix Nights and Father Ted (the Ormonde cinema used in the Passion of St. Tibulus was in fact my local until it closed six or seven years ago).
Are there any comedy stalwarts/writers on this forum?

Welcome George . There is a few George's on this forum.

Oh yus, my dear, it's a gem. Irish comedy is usually idiotic and unfunny a la Killinaskully, the Polish-themed Mind Your Language imitation The English Class and Irish Pictorial Weekly.
Ha!!! Here's one for ya!
This Irishman, yeah? This Irishman walks into a forum and....

Hello, I'm Loopey, very old, not from Ireland. Welcome.
Yes there are comedy stalwarts/writers here; you may find some of them lurking in the Make It section of the boards.
