Hi, first time I have tried starting a thread, but while reading the Best Sitcom thread it occured to me that maybe we should also search for our favourite comedy scene or quote of all time. So have a thought on what made you laugh, not just the show but the actual best moments.
2 examples, first from the wife, 2nd from me:
Faulty Towers - Communication Problems
"I cant see the sea!"
"Yes you can, it's over there between the land and the sky"
"I'd need a telescope to see that"
"Well may I suggest you consider moving to a hotel closer to the sea, or preferably in it"
Blackadder goes forth - Private Plane
"Always treat your kite like you treat your woman!"
"How do you mean sir, do mena take her home at the weekend to meet your mother?"
"No, I mean get inside her 5 times a day and take her to heaven and back"
Give little more insight in to what makes us laugh...

Funniest comedy scene
NED FLANDERS: You see Homer, I'm in a dilly of a pickle. Maud and her mother have gone to the Holy Land. They must have knelt in the wrong place or prayed to the wrong god because they've been kidnapped by militants! I've got to go to Capital City and the embassy to try and get them out. Can you look after my boys while I'm away?
HOMER SIMPSON: Gee, I'd really love to wanna help you Flanders but Marge... was... kidnapped... in... Holy Land...and...
Funniest comedy scene ever, no contest.
Alternatively, Brian Potter in Phoenix Nights being asked if he can allow one of his function rooms to be used for some kids to practice a production.
LES: It'll only be for a couple of days
BRIAN POTTER: Aye, that's what they said to Terry Waite.

The scene from The Office series one where Gareth, Finchy,David and Tim go out clubbing in Slough. We think it is a classic episode (classic series too) many funny parts but for some reason the following scene get us howling.
Gareth is getting it on with a woman, and he notices a man watching them and asks what his problem is. The woman says its ok thats my husband, do you fancy coming back to ours . Gareth proclaims he will not do it infront of another man and storms off saying no way. The bit that really cracks us up though, is at the end of the episode, you see a glimpse of Gareth leaving in the side car of the couples' motor bike with a scared, shocked and horny look on his face. That look never fails to make us laugh no matter how many times we see it, partly because we are swingers and it involves a swinging couple, but mostly because Gareth's look at the end is just classic and the whole incident is never referred to again throughout the series.
Im not doing it the justice it deserves.........so go and watch it!!!!!
Also from The Office:
Gareth says to Tim:
"He's put my stapler in a jelly again, he knows I hate jelly, I dont trust the way it moves!"
Gareth says to Tim about Finchy:
"He's thrown a kettle over a pub, what have you done?"

My best buddy Man-who-Lives
told me to say he's no good at
remembrin' these kinds of things
but all the really ROFLMAO comedy
scenes involve me!
Like the Episode where I'm hypnotised
and spend the whole first half of
an Episode screaming at everything
- that nearly killed my close bud ManOlive.

Good one - it's a great moment- so brief and so telling. Gareth kind of has a resigned, guilty look on his face as if to say: "oh well - might as well get shagged senseless by this couple".
:grin:
:grin: He he he he .....Manalive glad we are not the only ones who appreciate it !!! Im giggling here just thinking about it! Gareth is a fantastic character i love him.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Gareth says to Tim's girlfriend (cant remember her name)
" What do you see in him, he's a fisher price man....... suppose a hand job's out of the question..."
(I hope I got that right)
Oh how fantastic...

I thought the look was more frightened, as if to say: "Bloody hell, he's a big bugger. I hope he's not bisexual"
Probably right - every kind of thought :shock: is conveyed/suggested by the actor (Mackenzie Crook, who's now in a feature film) a nice bit of comic acting for sure.

Quote by ManAlive
Here's one from Phoenix Nights - the guys stuck in a supermarket sellling black bin liners by singing an utterly pathetic promotional jingle to the tune of 'Men in Black' -
- so incredibly good I couldn't believe my eyes and ears
#Come and get your black bin bags.
They're on offer 'til December.
Come and get your black bin bags,
They're long and black and slender.
Come and get your black bin bags,
No matter what your gender.
Heavy duty black bin bags,
Whether bi or straight or bender.
Just rip with me, and rip with me, and tear with me right now!
Just rip with me, and rip with me, and tear with me right now!
Fill 'em up now!#
Quote by ManAlive
Well googled Mr Writer - it's heaven to read it to the tune of The Men in Black :grin:
All from memory, I'm afraid. I interviewed Dave Spikey (Jerry St Clair) last year for an assignment and I got pretty obsessive in my research. It basically involved watching the videos and DVDs of Phoenix Nights repeatedly.
Showing my age I know but...

Del, Rodney, Denzil, Boycie and Mike are all upstairs in the Nag's Head wondering who organised the school reunion when Trigger walks in.
Del, Boycie and Denzil: Trigger!
Trigger Alright.
Del Wait a minute. Maybe Trigger organised this!
Boycie Oh turn it up, Del Boy. Trigger couldn't organise a prayer in a mosque.
Trigger I got lost on me way here.
DenzilHow could you get lost? You've been coming to this pub since you were 16!
Trigger No I found the pub alright. I meant I couldn't find this room. (To Mike) I've been in your dance hall for the past hour.
Mike But all the lights are out!
Trigger I know
Boycie You've been standing in the dark for an hour?
Trigger Yeah I thought we were all gonna jump out and surprise someone.
Mike But there was no one else in there.
Trigger But I didn't know that, did I? The lights were out. How you going, Dave?
Also The argument Clinic, from Monty Python.

There are loads aren't there, some really happy memories elicited by the above.
I love the Monty Python sketch with 'The Black knight' getting hacked to bits but still wanting to fight on. It seemed hilarious to all we young lads, in pristine school blazers, to whom M.P.F.C. was our little bit of identity and rebellion
The 'fools and Horses ' episode where Del and Rodney, complete with'Batman and Robin' costumes, ran out of the fog. Classic.
The Fawlty Towers episode with the rat-still has me belly laughing.
The episode of 'Phoenix Nights', where the fairgound rides proved to be invalid carriages.
But best of all? Not even funny, but one of the most magnificent pieces of British Television: the last episode of 'Blackadder Goes Forth' where the boys 'go over the top'. I know it has already been mentioned above, but it was truly gut-wrenching.

One of my favourites is also from BlackAdder 2
Baldrick's 'lucky' willy.
Baldrick (after Percy shot him)......
'By some stroke of luck the arrow missed my leg and went straight through my willy.'
'I'll be able to tell my grandchildren about my lucky willy'
Edmund......
'I don't think so Baldrick!
Another quck quip.
When Edmund is teaching Maths to Baldrick.
Edmund.....
If you have some beans and add some more beans (can't remember the exack numbers) what will you have?
Baldrick....
'A very small casserole'

One of my favourire comedy scenes is from Woody Allens Sleeper when he his being shown around his new apartment, they point out the orgasm machine and he just hugs it like it is his best friend in the world.
The entire episode of Peckham Spring Water from Only Fools and Horses.
Another all time favourite is from Yes Minister, 'Skeleton in the Cupboard'.
Hacker: 'Bernard, Sir Humphrey his not god'
Bernard: 'Shall you tell him or I'.
Simple and classic.

Definately the scene in the 'Comic relief' episode o fthe 2nd The Office series where David Brent does his 'dance' routine: side splittngly funny.
Or possibly Prince George's 'chicken impression' in Blackadder the 3rd in the General Election episode.
Or (politically sensitive comment warning) every time George Bush performs in public without a pre-prepared speech
