Used to sit and watch Only fools with my mum and dad as a kid and found it funny. Growing up and rewatching them I got all the jokes that I didn’t at a younger age. Brilliant, brilliant program. So many great moments. Batman and Robin, Chandelier, The Bar. Brilliant.

It's like folk on here are trying to out do each other in the 'let's say/compare something stupid about Fools and Horses'.

- "I don't feel well"
- "You're 92 you're not supposed to feel well"
From Mrs Browns Boys but could be right at home in OFAH and with the same studio audience wetting themselves with mirth.

I'll raise you Ronnie Barker.
To be fair, the both of 'em were comedy geniuses.
Plus, I'll challenge you to think of Les Dawson and
not smile!
A golden generation of talent.
And, may your God go with you, Dave Allen, from that era.

I wonder if its possible to both find ofah funny as, but also think the Stewart Lee sketch hilarious as well?
Or can you only acknowledge ofah as one of the funniest shows to the most people ever, OR be a smug, better than thou S Lee fan?

I can confirm that it is possible to find both very funny.

So we're agreed. OFAH is the funniest sitcom ever.
