Polls and Leagues

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

lazarou.jpgJust browsing the web the other day, I stumbled across the results of Channel 4’s 50 Greatest Comedy Sketches (2006?). It’s a good mix of contemporary and classic, and despite giving the award to Little Britain I feel that the rest of the table is a pretty good reflection.

In fact the only really contentious point is the presence of The League of Gentlemen, confirming that no one seems to know whether it is a sketch show or a sitcom.

  1. Lou and Andy (Swimming Pool) - Little Britain
  2. Petshop/Dead Parrot - Monty Python’s Flying Circus
  3. Tubbs and Edward (Road Men) - The League of Gentlemen
  4. Vicky Pollard (Swimming Pool) - Little Britain
  5. Four Candles - The Two Ronnies
  6. Going For An English - Goodness Gracious Me
  7. Acorn Antiques � Victoria Wood, As Seen On TV
  8. Breakfast - The Morecambe and Wise Show
  9. Ted and Ralph (Drinking Game) - The Fast Show
  10. Good Aids/Bad Aids - Brass Eye
