You know, Only Fools, Father Ted, Two Ronnies, so on and on etc. What's the best?

Neat lists in order of quality, none of your fucking guff. Happy xmo, get on with it.

Only Fools for me. Sadly my wife isn’t a massive fan. No taste. Explains a lot right haha.

And eastenders always good for a laugh on festive season.

I'm hoping this is said in jest.

I'll go for The Office and Knowing me, Knowing Yule.

Not remotely christmasy, other than its story i guess, but Extra's Christmas Special was great too. The two best things that Gervais/Merchant have written.

One of the British 'things' which forever made me reminded of being an outsider was Only Fools and Horses.

It's....shit. Even when Del Boy fell through the bar

I been wanting to rewatch the office for a few months but I’m afraid I might die of cringe. Might have to put 999 on speed dial

I see no votes for the Star Wars Holiday Special.

All is right with the world.

Going with Father Ted but back in the day Only Fools was always watched n’all. PES needs a good talking to not liking it. 😤
