Britain's Best Sitcom
The BBC is doing another of its vox-pop "cultural" projects to decide which is Britain's best-ever sitcom. The final shortlist is:
Blackadder Dad's Army Fawlty Towers The Good Life One Foot in the Grave Only Fools and Horses Open All Hours Porridge The Vicar of Dibley Yes Minister Which are your favourites? Either Fawlty Towers or Only Fools and Horses have got to be most likely to win - and deservedly so - but personally I have a soft spot for the chaotic poignancy of Dad's Army and the fantastic scripts of Yes Minister. And Blackadder, of course. You can still vote; the winner will be decided on Saturday 27th http://www.bbc.co.uk/sitcom/
