The Greatest UK Sitcoms of All Time

I used this as a list question last night at the Joker & The Thief.

It’s a list based on Radio Times survey of its readers in 2019 when they asked people to name their favourite UK sitcom of all time.

I just made a Pick 5 vid to go with it on YouTube and, for reference, here are the Top 20:



1 Fawlty Towers (1975-9, BBC Two)
2 Father Ted (1995-8, Channel 4)
3 I’m Alan Partridge (1997-2002, BBC Two)
4 Blackadder (1983-9, BBC One)
5 Dad’s Army (1968-77, BBC One)
6 Only Fools and Horses (1981-2003, BBC One)
7 Porridge (1973-8, BBC One)
8 The Royle Family (1998-2012, BBC One)
9 Absolutely Fabulous (1992-2012, BBC Two)
10 Dinnerladies (1998-2000, BBC One)
11 The Thick of It (2005-12, BBC Four and Two)
12 The Office (2001-3, BBC Two)
13 Peep Show (2003-15, Channel 4)
14 The Vicar of Dibley (1994-2007, BBC One)
15 The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin (1976-9, BBC One)
16 The Young Ones (1982-4, BBC Two)
17 Gavin & Stacey (2007-10, BBC Three and One)
18 The Good Life (1975-8, BBC One)
19 Detectorists (2014-17, BBC Four)
20 Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads? (1973-4, BBC One)
