    Witchsmeller: [talking about ordeal by axe] The suspect has his head placed upon a block, and an axe aimed at his neck. If the man is guilty, the axe will bounce off his neck — so we burn him. If the man is not guilty, the axe will simply slice his head off.

    sorry, that one is from blackaddar

    Another Blackaddar jem

    Friar Bellows: Perhaps a motto for our enterprise? "Blessed are the meek..."
    [The rest grumble in disagreement.]
    Friar Bellows: "... for they shall be slaughtered!"
    [The rest cheer and rush for the door.]
    Edmund: But the plan! You've forgotten the plan!
    Sir Wilfred Death: I thought that was the plan!
    Sean, the Irish Bastard: Let's get those meek bastards now!

      That first one reminds me of the cheech and chong 'Dave' sketch. It's dave man let me in. Dave's not here man!

      Ahh you are right, the BBC does do a real service in providing great comedy, tho I think some of the older stuff is better.

          I would probably have to find it on UKTVGold then?

          Sadly I am catching up with all the brilliant british comedies. I love 'The Good Life' tho the last ever episode had me in tears after it had me in stitches of course

    If you don't mind radio rather than TV, then how about BBC Radio 4's Old Harry's Game, which is set in Hell?  Andy Hamilton plays Satan, so that will give you an idea of what to expect lol 

    There's a guy on YouTube who has helpfully uploaded vast numbers of old episodes from past series.  This is series 1 episode 1 part 1, which will get you started LOL:

    How about a little Young Ones quote?

    Vyvyan: I must be hallucinating. What's a good thing for a hangover?

    Mike: Drinking heavily the night before.



    Mike: Neil, it is very rare you interest me, but today you have. Why do you keep coming in here, carrying a cake, and saying surprise?

    Neil: It's my birthday.

    Mike: Now you knew that anyway, and we don't care, so where's the surprise?

    A little Vicar of Dibely is always good too smile

    A nun is taking a bath when someone knocks at the door. She asks who it is, and the person says, "The blind man." So she lets him come into the bathroom. The man enters the room and says, "Nice tits. Where do you want me to put the blinds?"

    David Horton: Dibley can't afford a new window.

    Geraldine: Wait a minute! 'Can't' isn't in the Christian Vocabulary!

    Owen Newitt: Yes it is! You can't commit Adultery, You can't steal...

    Jim Trott: You can't even covet your neighbour's ass. Even if it is very alluring!

    From "The Oscar Wilde sketch", Monty Python's Flying Circus.

    J.M. Whistler: Your highness is also like a stream of bat's piss. [outrage ensues]...it was one of Shaw's...

    G.B. Shaw: What I meant your majesty...what I meant...um..I meant that you shine out like a shaft of gold when all around is dark.
    [riotous laughter ensues] lol
