Well, obviously the answer is Steptoe and Son but what do you think?
My top ten
Steptoe and Son
Dad's Army
One Foot in the Grave
Porridge
Till death us do part
Fawlty Towers
The Royle Family
Rising Damp
Blackadder
Hancock's half hour
Steptoe and Son (not # 1 for me, but of it's time and funny)
Dad's Army (as above)
One Foot in the Grave (Sponsored by RLFans?)
Porridge #1 for me
Till death us do part (no comment, unless ypu like racism and xenophobia)
Fawlty Towers #2, Cleese knew when to stop
The Royle Family (have a word, it's crap)
Rising Damp (as above)
Blackadder (#3)
Hancock's half hour (not a sitcom)
I wouldn't include The Office in any list as Gervais is a (insert word here), likewise Phoenix Nights because of Peter Kay, I would chuck Butterflies, Lovejoy lots of others in there, Red Dwarf, Minder. One thing is for certain, all of them were better than the American garbage we have to flick past now.
