Nathan Barley

Believe. Underrated in every way from the excellent writing team of Charlie Brooker and Chris Morris. If you're a fan of the Boosh look out for Noel Fielding and Juilan Barratt.

Arrested Development - Season 1

Narrated by Ron Howard (Happy Days, Beautiful Mind, Da Vinci Code) and the show that launched the career of Micheal Cera (Juno, Superbad). Critics loved it but it somehow didn't get the ratings...

Brass Eye

Another gem from Chris Morris. Takes a stab at the media and celebrity culture. Not for the easily offended its 2001 paedophilia special (which is a satiristic take on the media moral panics and NOT paedophilia) received over 2000 complaints

It's the cream of British Comedy. This is the first wave of alternative comedy

Big Train - Series 1 And 2

An excellent TV sketch show from the writers of Father Ted, starring the likes of Simon Pegg and Catherine Tate.

Monty Python - The Best Of Monty Python's Flying Circus

Okay, this may have not passed you by but if you have never watch the Pythons do it's a comedy masterclass that feels fresh today as it ever did.

Garth Marenghi's Darkplace

Based on the Perrier Award winning character by Matthew Holness this series parodied low budget 80's shows. Only one series was made in 2004 but it's increasingly becoming a TV classic.
