UK Comedy Cup 2023 - Nominations Thread​

Attempted this back in 2014 but never finished it, and to stop it being a regret I take to my grave I am resurrecting this competition now (well, following completion of @stewart12 's wonderful Albion Fantasy World Cup anyway).

9 years on and with many more active NSC members, have any comedy classics been added?

32 spaces available - a comedy show has to be nominated by TWO separate posters to qualify. First come, first served.

Standard 32 team World Cup format - 8 groups of 4, Round of 16, QFs, SFs, Final. UK (& EIRE) comedy shows only. Can be sketch show, sitcom, etc etc.
