Featuring Rik, Ade, Jennifer Saunders, Dawn French, Alexei Sayle, Robbie Coltrane and more...
Does anyone like any of the Comic Strip stuff? I personally love 'Mr Jolly Lives Next Door' - perhaps because Peter Cook is in it - and some of the other ones were great (such as 'Five Men in a Car') but there were also some terrible flops like Sex Actually (though Sheridan Smith was quite good in it).
Any Comic Strip fans?

I was just about to get round to this myself!
I've just finished watching the entire box set which I bought a few months ago.
They are very hit and miss, but do have some decent epsiodes, including the 'Five Go mad in Dorste/ Mescalin', 'Bad News Tour', 'More Bad News' which has them playing live at castle Donnington for real, where they get lots of bottles thrown at them!, 'The Supergrass' is pleasant enough, 'Mr. Jolly Lives Next Door' is good too, 'The Bullshitters' not bad, 'The Funseekers' is good too, 'Gregory: Diary of a Nutcase'. Didn't mind the 'Four men in a car', but 'Four Men in a Plane' was better.
The worst episodes were 'Summer School', 'Eat The Rich', 'The Strike (even though it won an award, I hated that one!), 'GLC', 'Oxford', 'Wild Turkey' (worst of all in my opinion) and 'Queen of the Wild Frontier'
As for Sheridan Smith episode, it was poor, but she's lovely in it! ;D

Mr Jolly - good one!
What was 'Fistful Of Dollars' spoof? I liked it... but can't recall the name.
Also - the Alexei Sayle one - "Didn't you kill my brother" - I liked that one!
;D

'Five Go Mad In Dorset' was a good one - any p*sstake of Enid Blyton gets my vote.
