The Harry Enfield Television Show used to have me in stitches. Mr Cholmondley-Warner, Wayne & Waynetta, Mr "Now I don't think you wanted to do that!".

Classic.


Newer stuff is a bit wide of the mark for me.

Would you count The Day Today as a sketch show? If so, that's my numero uno...

Re: best sketch show...

Some great shows here (though not all sketch shows obviously!). Big Train was one of my favourites. The staring competition with Barry Davies commentating, "The Working Class" sketch take-off of Hitchcock's The Birds - brilliant!
