For me, the final episode of The detectorists series 3 episode 6.
Such a feel good, inclusive story line. Could watch it time and time again

What is your favourite?
Unquestionably one of the greatest TV productions of all time. Yes, it really is THAT good!

The Day Today's War episode is fantastic. I'll add that to the other Morris and Coogan efforts on this thread.

I could also watch a full half hour of Baddiel and Newman doing History Today and, yes, I know how childish that is.

Fawlty Towers - A Touch Of Class
Another vote for Faulty Towers - the only comedy show that ever had me in stitches.

Close runner up to ‘Don’t Mention the War’ (that I could find on YT)



Maybe it’s just John Cleese - he’s a genius

Used to love Morecambe & Wise, but watched some back recently and nearly all of it left me cold. The Bottom Christmas episode however always has me in stitches.

I loved Python, but when you watch it back now, the short gems are still brilliant, but there's and awful lot that doesn't work. Definitely not a whole 30 minutes.
