I think The Number one sketch Andy and Lou Shouldn't really be there, i just think it get so old there is only a certain amount of times you can say "Yahiknow" and "I want that one" untill its not funny no more..... :?
April 4, 200521 yr I can't believe that the Only Fools And Horses scene where Del falls through the bar isn't even in the top 50. Can't argue with the dead parrot sketch though, absolute classic. Kirk and Lars I could handle. At the same time.
April 4, 200521 yr The top 50's on channel 4 are majorly boring. Aside from that, where the hell are only fools and horses and fawlty towers? Tommy cooper in the 40's? Billy Connely? Hmm... And i don't understand how they picked Good Aids/Bad Aids out of Brass Eye as being the best. Brass Eye's about the stupid short jokes, like the Myth Smashing and the Paedophile Crab. Good Aids/Bad Aids was pretty daring, but in no way was it the funniest thing from Brass Eye.
April 4, 200521 yr Author I can't believe that the Only Fools And Horses scene where Del falls through the bar isn't even in the top 50. Can't argue with the dead parrot sketch though, absolute classic. Yah dead Parrot one is class... Ummm.. reason Only fools wernt in it cause its classed as a sitcom not sketch show :? but it won best sitcom last year :P

Same as i said to Riz, fawlty towers and Only fools are classed as sitcoms, not sketch shows... sketch shows is where there is not main situation, but with sitcoms theres one situation like set in a hotel or about to brothers in peckham...
April 4, 200521 yr The Lou and Andy swimming pool one should not have won it. I like Little Britain, but that didn't amuse me at all.
April 4, 200521 yr The Suicide Race sketch from Monty Python's Flying Circus should definately be in there. Dreaming of that face againIt's bright, and blue, and shimmeringGrinning wideAnd comforting me with it's three warm and wild eyes
April 4, 200521 yr The Suicide Race sketch from Monty Python's Flying Circus should definately be in there. The one with all of the posh people which is like a horse race?

April 4, 200521 yr I was surprised that Little Britain won, since it is kinda new. I thought the four candles sketch by the two ronnies shoulda won. It cracks me up everytime I see it :P
April 4, 200521 yr Good Aids/Bad Aids - Brass Eye An absolute classic :D. Ive got the DVD :D I'm suprised theres not more from Brass Eye on there. I guess they are all a little bit politically incorrect to be in a top 50. Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

April 4, 200521 yr The Suicide Race sketch from Monty Python's Flying Circus should definately be in there. The one with all of the posh people which is like a horse race? It's the one with like, a race course, then at the end there's a bunch of pistols. Whoever shoots themself with the pistol first wins. It's just [bleep]in' hilarious. Dreaming of that face againIt's bright, and blue, and shimmeringGrinning wideAnd comforting me with it's three warm and wild eyes
April 4, 200521 yr Yeah, i know the one you mean. That seriously should have been in there, the bit where they have to jump over 2 matchboxes cracked me up
April 4, 200521 yr You cant really read too much into these top 50 tv programms. They are on all the time these days especially on the music channels. They have a top 50 rock videos like every week and they are always different. Just pass them off as mild entertainment and remanicing :D Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

April 4, 200521 yr Saw it. I never do agree with them, really, and thought that the order in this one was a bit more off than usual. Funny, though, especially the rod stewart one and the mastercheft one, neither of which I'd seen before (that may have been what made me find them funnier). deviantart account
April 5, 200521 yr I don't really agree with the list but they're some absolute classics. Parrot Sketch, Good Aids/Bad Aids :lol: But the Morcecambe and Wise singing in the rain, when you first watch it, is absolutely hilarious. I also though the Chandelier scene from Only Fools and Horses should have been in it. This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you.
