I had a think about it the other day and I realised that almost every comedy I enjoy came out years ago. Blackadder, Alan partridge, Red dwarf, brass Eye, the office, father Ted, fawlty towers, even middle of the road stuff like coupling, the Royle family and early seasons of my family raised a smile. Maybe I'm just getting old but I haven't seen much at all in the last decade coming out of the UK apart from peep show and that started in 2003.
Maybe we are just too worried now about proper representation or cultural sensitivity rather than making something that's actually amusing. I should add I thought fleabag was well done but it wasn't funny in the slightest.
