So, everyone's favourite Bottom episode?

I quite like the one where they went camping on Wimbledon Common and a Womble nicked their packet of hob-nobs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Gas Man is brilliant. Camping one is great. I also love the one where they’re stuck on the Ferris Wheel, it’s just dialogue all the way through but hilarious.

Lots of great comedies in the 21st century, Office, Peep Show, Inbetweeners, ITCrowd, People Just Do Nothing, The Thick of It.

Peep Show is amazing

As mentioned earlier “Parade” the one with sad ken takes some beating, Richey thinking chief inspector Grobelaar was the accused is a classic bottom moment

I never found series 3 of Bottom that funny though. The standard dropped.

Scene 7. A Betting-shop.
-------------------------

[The shop is full. Eddie is just putting a bet on.]

Eddie: Five hundred quid, on the nose, on Sad Ken if you please.
Bookie: Certainly. Would you like to pay tax?
Eddie: Well of course I wouldn't. What a ridiculous question!
Bookie: Right then, here we are Marjorie, another bundle for the Sad
Ken pile.

[He tosses Eddie's notes onto a huge pile of money.]

Old Man: 7p on Sad Ken, please.
Bookie: 7p?
Old Man: Yeah, it's all Harry the Barsteward would give me for my house.
Bookie: Right then, that's it I'm afraid. Race on!
Eddie: Right, here we go then. Acapulco here we come! Ahh, this is
it boys. Untold wealth. Birds!
Spudgun: Booze!
Hedgehog: Budgerigars!
Commentator: They're lined up now ready to go... and they're off! Ah well,
they're nearly all off, there still stuck in the stalls is
Sad Ken, er, oh and he's off now, he's gone now in completely
the wrong direction, rather slowly. And I must say I think
it's very sporting of them to enter a three-legged blind
horse here this afternoon... And he's hit a tree, he's hit a
tree, and he's down -- oh well, back now we go to the leaders
-- ah, no, no, back with Sad Ken for now, and I'm afraid
they've had to shoot him. Yes, Sad Ken has been shot... and
so has the jockey.

Yeah the Alastair Campbell character capaldi plays has some amazing put downs in it. I imagine real life government isn’t too far away from that buffoonery especially with Boris in charge.

It’s good but I’m not sure it’s aged that well. The Chinese episode though - imagine making that now !

Blackadder is great as well

The Ferris wheel episode (Hole) is great. “How dare you accuse me of being overweight!”

Always had Culture, the chess match, as my personal favourite. The bit where Richie is lining up his first move is just incredible.

Bottom- years since I watched that. Fair play!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Great TV.

Can never stop laughing at the Sad Ken scene.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It was always the fight scenes that would go on for ages and get more and more violent and slap stick, smashing pans over each other’s heads for minute at a time
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Without wanting to sound older than I really am, can you imagine trying to make TV like that these days...?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not a chance. Pc brigade would be up in arms. Tbf it was extremely violent in a very funny and no one ever really hurt type way, but still, there’s not a hope any network would field that.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Violent, crude, very white cast and awful attitude to women.

We’ll never see the likes of it again
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Which is ironic, since you pretty much just described the Prime Minister.

Late 90's to early 00's had some of the best comedy - I'm Alan Partridge, Brass Eye, The Office, Spaced, League of Gentlemen etc..

That Chinese episode is first class. The hitler salute at the window to his crude attempt at subliminal messaging in his slide show to the end. Top class.

Written by the same guy as it crowd which for me doesn't gave a bad episode..

I’ve got a mate who got very drunk, took a dump on a pavement in Ware, fell backwards in it...& got the bird he was seeing at the time... Wino Bird... to help clean him up.
He was in that bad a state, that he wasn’t capable of removing his clothes & jumping in the shower...
This is a true story... not made up by the writers of Bottom... or the Inbetweeners!!

I’ve always wondered why Edward has hitler in his username. Most bizarre. Maybe I’m missing a reference somewhere?
