    I think the funniest sketch I ever saw on TV was Rowan Atkinson changing into his swimming trunks on the beach. If you haven't seen it, do try to find it, hilarious.

          Yes, I do, although for some reason that I can't recall I missed most of the entire run of NTNON. I used to play a lot of sport, back then, and do a lot of drinking, so it was probably on on a training night.

            You're better off with Blackadder - especially Blackadder Goes Forth - especially as it will shock American's that cool Dr Gregory House played some right idiots in BlackAdder (to great comic effect of course).

              Once again, I missed a lot of those the first time round. Pretty sure I've seen most of them on re-run at one time or another. Blackadder was indeed good, but it suffered greatly, in comparison, from a distinct lack of Pamela Stephenson.

                But it did have Bob. Surely that counts for something?

                  I just flicked over the TV and caught Rowen Atkinson doing an impression of a 3 headed Martian with 15 hands and 15 legs, green skin and a flashing belly button. They just don't make comedy like that any more. :laugh:

                  That scene is one of my favourite scenes from the short lived series. The Constable's greeting to the 3 headed Martian was really good too! Unfortunately it is true that they don't make comedy like that any more.

                          Yes, I love British comedy. It's more subtle, and intelligent than US comedy.
