I'm full of cold and want to lie under a blanket watching something that makes me laugh. Help me please.

Loved League of Gentlemen, Physcoville, Hunderby, Mandy etc. Don't mind dark but must make me laugh.

TIA.

I binge watched Motherland - still hoping to find the Christmas special

Came on to say This Country too. Love it

Offspring on Netflix. Takes a few episodes but laugh out loud funny, also heartbreakingly sad (trigger warning). Got me through newborn cluster feeding in the middle of the night (and woke up DH with the giggles more than once).

Not a sit com but “would I lie to you “ always makes me laugh out loud

PermanentTemporary · 20/10/2021 19:49

Plebs. Can't remember where it's on. The pitch 'the inbetweeners in Rome' captures everything good and bad about it, except it also has Doon Mackichan Star Made me laugh a lot ( though apparently the first episode is rubbish, go straight to The Gladiator with Danny Dyer.
