Not watched this in years but from what I remember it was a decent comedy

The first few series were fantastic but once Tim Vine left, it went down hill badly.

Good w/ moments of amazing. Rare for a show so situated in a formula to so completely break free from it, and to evolve the premise!

First few seasons were hilarious and fun to watch but show went downhill after a few seasons and almost unwatchable after Tim Vine left.

some funny stuff but overall, no. its a bit lame

Has it’s hilarious moments. It’s an easy watch and a decent comedy show.

Some of the best British TV going. Definitely haven’t laughed as hard at anything else as I have at some of this.

Used to be hilarious, haven’t seen it for years though, apparently it’s still pretty good

Good episodes when flicking channels.

It’s not my cup of tea

Quiz in which contestants try to score as few points as possible by plumbing the depths of their general knowledge to come up with the answers no-one else can think of.

Coronation Street

The residents of Coronation Street are ordinary, working-class people, and the show follows them through regular social and family interactions at home, in the workplace, and in their local pub, the Rovers Return Inn. Britain's longest-running soap.

Partly-improvised sitcom looking at the trials and tribulations of bringing up three young children - a regal five-year-old girl with a talent for interrogation, a seven-year-old boy who could fib for Britain and an 11-year-old who is gearing up for his scary first day at secondary school.

Mrs Brown's Boys

Mrs. Brown's Boys is a British-Irish award winning sitcom created by and starring writer and performer Brendan O'Carroll. The show is based on O'Carroll's stage plays about the character Agnes Browne, which were developed from books and straight-to-DVD films. The sitcom continues the stories of Agnes, now with the shortened surname "Brown", and her family who are played by real life close friends and family of O'Carroll's. After being slated by critics, the show has become a ratings success in both Ireland, where it is set, and the United Kingdom, where it is recorded. On 29 December 2012 the show began its third series. Mrs Brown's Boys is a co-production among BBC Scotland, BocPix and RTÉ.

Comedy quiz show full of quirky facts, in which contestants are rewarded more if their answers are 'quite interesting'.

8 Out of 10 Cats

8 Out of 10 Cats is a British television comedy panel game produced by Zeppotron for Channel 4. It was first broadcast on 3 June 2005. The show is based on statistics and opinion polls, and draws on polls produced by a variety of organizations and new polls commissioned for the programme, carried out by company Harris Poll.

Have I Got News for You

Have I Got News for You

Hilarious, totally-irreverent, near-slanderous political quiz show, based mainly on news stories from the last week or so, that leaves no party, personality or action unscathed in pursuit of laughs.

The everyday lives of working-class residents of Albert Square, a traditional Victorian square of terrace houses surrounding a park in the East End of London's Walford borough.
