The League of gentleman is probably the most fantastic comedy to arise from our screens, ever. I do wonder if that humour is/would be well recieved on a global scale? It's is superb, and as already quoted, Papa Lazarou is one fantastic creation, but who can forget Pop, ah.

Pop: "Let's go and watch a video together"

Son: "Watership Down?"

Pop: "No, Assmaster"

Hmm, guess you have to see/hear it...

I'm also partial to a bit of Bo Selecta too. Michael Jackson... yes.

TLOG is one of the finest pieces of comedy in recent years...but, I really miss Drop the Dead Donkey...that was some damn fine shit.

Although the third was kinda sucky, the rest is gold. Odd, but gold.

And it is in the way he says that line especially when going on about his favourite film.

"No... no. It was... The Ass... Master."

Watch Gimme, Gimme, Gimme, that's the only one of the top of my head that'll show you that even brits can produce utter crap without batting an eyelid.
