The Plank was funny, there was also a similar one which was set at the seaside.

Remember when Steptoe was buttering bread as his fag ash fell, and he buttered it in as well. Also how he sealed the edge of a pie with his false teeth.

Can still laugh at On the Buses

Was going to mention Nearest and Dearest. Funniest moment was when Nelly fell off bar stool drunk into the vicars lap and belched pickle breath in his face.
