Nuala Reece Caldari Starlancers Mordus Angels	Posted - 2007.06.19 17:47:00 - [1] Edited by: Nuala Reece on 19/06/2007 17:48:20 Too many favourites to mention. Someone mentioned Open All Hours though and forgot to mention Porridge - one of the all time greats. Phoenix Nights is a good one too, although I'm not sure how well it'd translate for a US audience. Rab C Nesbitt was great, as was Naked Video where he first appeared. And for more excellent Scots sketches try Absolutely. Callum Gilhooley and the Soneybridge Council still make me giggle just to think about them Calum Gilhooley Lots of the shows already mentioned might be listed on http://www.alluc.org Starlancers

It kind of suggested that the latter wasn't appealing to his audience's sense of humour but to their prejudice, which doesn't make for good comedy in my book. Starlancers

Bill Hicks? QFT But curiously far more appreciated here in the UK than his native US. Starlancers
