There is something about the look on Browny's face that forces me to vote for him.
likewise, and John's is quite scary!!

BrownDog for me.
Lady Lawrence's reminds me of a troll.
Helix is another candidate. Still waiting on the Sherminator. Vidman's is pretty good. Lioness' avatar is very good.

OK, I missed a few. Sorry guys...
Change to the rules: The top 2 from this poll will advance to the final and I will start a new poll with those that aren't in this one. Let me know of anyone else that needs to be included.

totally agree - you can almost hear him snorting, bit like when the bull scrapes his hoof before the charge.

nup this mod loves Monkey.
'They'll be sorry. They'll be sorry if I die - except that I can't. Whatever you do it ends up raining. What's it all for? What's the point of it all? And if it hasn't got a point, what's the point of that?'

Pigsy: 'Say something really insulting.'
Monkey: 'Okay... Pig!'

Awesome. Was he one of the other members of the platoon?
Lady Lawrence
26 Feb 2007, 15:37
honestly I was too little to really know who he was, I never watched the show when I was little but watched it when older with a new appreication but I'm buggered if I know which one he was, i think he's dead now though

When reading through the NAB cup game thread against the Saints I was laughing my head off at the doom and gloom. We may well finish down the ladder but our whole season was being wiped based on a quarter of footy that was full of the new boys being played in monsoonal conditions. All I could think about was Fraser saying "Weera doomed" or Jones running around like a headless chook yelling "don't panic." My sense of humour I guess. When I searched for pics of them I found Captain Mainwaring. The bowler hat was the winner for me;). You keep loving those UK comedies Warwick and I will keep talking about em to you. I watched a repeat of Fawlty Towers on Saturday arvo on UK TV and I still laughed my head off even though I have seen them about 100 times. It was the episode when Polly had the amorous boyfriend in the foyer. She wore a tight fitting singlet and I am convinced that they used ice just prior to filming the scene;).
After she had received a lecture from Basil about dress codes she stomped of to get changed and the phone rang. Basil answer with "Fawlty Titties" I am still laughing now. Brilliant.

No one does comedy better than the British.
No matter how many times i have seen an episode of Dad's Army, Blackadder, Fawlty Towers etc, i still get a laugh.

Don't forget Yes Minister.
My Dad who sits with us at the footy, whenever Pikey would get the ball there'd be the refernce of "you stupid boy!" :D :D :D

Don't get me started, i will never stop.
One of the only British comedies i never really got into was Little Britian, which is strange because most like it. It is amusing, but misses the sharp wit.
Wednesday night on the ABC has a couple of good ones - Extras (pure genius) and The Worst Week of My Life.

I never really thought of that because Martin Pike is a lot different to Frank Pike.

Loved it. :thumbsu:
Good choice Channel 7!
The Office and Extras are oustanding. Yes Minister and Prime Minister are, like Fawlty Towers timeless. I can watch repeat after repeat. Though less a comedy, maybe more light entertainment, Minder is another that deserves a mention. It is on UK TV every Saturday night at 11.30 and I never miss it. It is almost a period piece now but I just love it.

Gotta say I'm with you there. I've tried, but it just won't stick.
Lady Lawrence
27 Feb 2007, 08:50
yeah but no but yeah but
I absolutely adore Little Britain, went to see it llive couple of weeks back and laughed till my tummy hurt and I was crying. However being a Pom I do get a lot of the humour that passes some Aussies by.
But I also agree it is specific tastes. for example I don't find funny, Fawlty Towers, Are You Being Served, Yes Primeminister, Blackadder etc.

TFB takes the Avatar lead.
D-Generation/Late Show is hard to beat.
Sh*t Scared, Shirty The Slightly Aggressive Bear, Understanding Wogs, Graham and the Colonel, Rob Sitch's various celebrity impersonations ( I don't want to talk about women, I want to talk about cricket!... Like a tiiiiiiiger!) etc.
Best

Quite easily too IMO.
A cult British comedy that I really love is ‘The Mighty Boosh’
It’s back on SBS on Thursdays at 10 PM. Impossible to even begin to describe beyond: very surreal and very funny.
If you don’t know it do yerself a favor and check it out...

Still I don't think I could top Monkey Magic:D
