    Blackadder is one of my favourites.

    My current favourite is Black Books. Dylan Moran is just brilliant!

    Has anyone mentioned anything that isn't from the Poms?
    It would seem they have a darned good sense of humour, ......maybe that helps explain cricket.

    The first time I saw Fawlty Towers on TV, I was in hospital after having my appendix out. To say I split my sides laughing is, unfortunately, a very accurate statement.

    I would put Fawlty Towers, BlackAdder and Red Dwarf at the top of the pile when it comes to comedy. If I had to take one to a deserted island, it would probably be Black Adder.

    I do pee myself laughing every time I watch The Germans though. "Don't mention the war" is a phrase we use a lot when we don't want someone to talk about a particular subject. Maybe we should use it here when we get sick of pancakes.

    I think its a cultural thing. Pom humour sits well with the Aussie sense of humour. Unlike the Yank stuff which generally has to take a rise out of or belittles someone, much of the pom stuff is genuinely funny (Tim the Toolman excepted).

    I like most pom humour but I think Blackadder and Yes Minister/Prime Minister are particularly good.

    Was at a conference last week run by a German company. One (German) speaker tried to lighten things up with a couple of jokes, to thin laughter. Then he apologised, saying that Germans don't have a sense of humour. Everyone roared. (OK, you had to be there)

    He also claimed that Germans drank furniture polish. Told him it would kill him - but he'd have a nice finish.

    What about South Park? Can't go past the 'respect my authortaaaah' episode. Or perhaps the Simpsons?

    But I do like the other mentioned.

    Not sure about Aunty Jack - before my time perhaps.
