[TV] Best 30 mins on tv ever.

[portlock seagull]

For me, the final episode of The detectorists series 3 episode 6.
Such a feel good, inclusive story line. Could watch it time and time again

What is your favourite?

Unquestionably one of the greatest TV productions of all time. Yes, it really is THAT good!

 

[keaton]

Fawlty Towers - The Germans

Close I think Communication Problems is the finest FT

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Morecambe and Wise or the Two Ronnies.

All round entertainment

 

[Guinness Boy]

The Day Today's War episode is fantastic. I'll add that to the other Morris and Coogan efforts on this thread.

I could also watch a full half hour of Baddiel and Newman doing History Today and, yes, I know how childish that is.

I always dip into a few episodes of Father Ted when I need cheering up, love it!

With you on David Baddiel, l enjoy everything that he does.

Absolutely loved it…….‘that’s you, that is’

Ignore

 

[Comrade Sam]

IT crowd Works Outing. Whenever someone suggests I go to the theatre I refer to this episode as a representation of what I believe all theatre to be like. Also Father Ted Eurovision or Bilko record recruitment episode.

 

[Frankworthington]

Any episode of Crossroads

 

[Frutos]

Probably the final episode of Blackadder Goes Forth.

 

[5Ways Gull]

Extra time, 30th July 1966, international football has never been the same. It's never coming home is it.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Any Detectorists, Rodney's wedding, the end of This is England '88, The 'Bottom' gasman/chess episode, Bobby Ewing climbing out of the shower.

 

[Zeberdi]

Fawlty Towers - A Touch Of Class

Another vote for Faulty Towers - the only comedy show that ever had me in stitches.

Close runner up to ‘Don’t Mention the War’ (that I could find on YT)



Maybe it’s just John Cleese - he’s a genius

”It’s bleedin’ demised!”

Fawlty Towers - The Germans

Good shout with TIE 88, made me blub at the time.

Used to love Morecambe & Wise, but watched some back recently and nearly all of it left me cold. The Bottom Christmas episode however always has me in stitches.

I loved Python, but when you watch it back now, the short gems are still brilliant, but there's and awful lot that doesn't work. Definitely not a whole 30 minutes.
