The Funniest Tv Sketch Ever

[sp1814]

A "bar conversation" I had on Saturday had me and a a few mates trying to decide which was the the funniest tv sketch ever.

After a lot of arguing, we managed to settle on "Brain Surgery" from That Mitchell & Webb Show (2009).

What would you say (YouTube links would be a bonus so we could all have a watch).

That was one that I put forward...and the queue for the canteen...but I was shouted down.

 

Imbeciles.

I think you need to rethink your choice of friends, sp.....LoL

Also, I think every single episode of Acorn Antiques would be in the running; glorious comedy moments.

Deaf Mrs Richards in fawlty towers complaining about her hotel room. Classic.

There's a difference between 'funniest sketch' and 'funniest TV moment' - sketch is stand-alone

[barney4444]

Pardon me, didn't realise I was doing a exam, thought it was a bit of fun.

NO, we not allowed, don't meet the requirements, and they wonder why people get put off posting on here, we can enjoy it though Ken.

Yup...I'd also include the Acorn Antiques "documentary" - the one where Mrs Overall and Mr Clifford are sacked.

There will never be a time when "It's a haemorrhoid preparation to be brutally frank, Paul" won't be funny.

I've always thought the Mastermind sketch was their top one...

Thanks for that sp1814 I'd not seen it before. I used to like the Pete and Dud sketches from the 60's

The timing of the M&W sketch is brilliant.

I believe it is one take, sp

The great thing about Pete & Dud was Dudley Moore corpsing...and Peter Cooke driving the knife in knowing he could wreck him.
