Mum: Why great British comedy can make us laugh and cry
It probably sounds really daft, but my favourite comedies are the ones that make me cry. Whilst the majority of us watch comedy to laugh it's the sign of a real comedy if you can get so attached to those on screen that you can cry at them or with them too.
Luke, The Custard TV, 14th March 2018Kelly and Jason are off on holiday: she's got her Marmite and her "lucky rocks" and everyone's come round to help them pack. As usual, Cathy and Michael are trampled on but their interaction doesn't quite stick to the formula: this will be the episode the wonderful stars Lesley Manville and Peter Mullan both submit to the Bafta jury.
