I appreciate that humour is personal, but I genuinely don’t understand why Philomena Cunk doesn’t have a higher profile.

Just watching Cunk on Life. The academics who agree to be interviewed are hardy souls. The mix between them trying not to laugh, looking completely bemused and probably feeling significant regret at agreeing to the interview is sublime. How she delivers everything so deadpan is truly impressive.

DH and I are laughing out loud every few seconds. Absolutely priceless. I realise it won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, wonder what others think…

Another series that didn’t get the recognition it deserved is The Other one
Side splittingly funny. Together with wonderful actors and good scripts.

My favourite of recent times has been The Change on Ch4.

It's lazy and boring comedy based on the theme 'I'm pretending to be a stupid person to embarrass you.' It's just the same every time. It's one joke.

It isn’t just funny though (which I think it is but then comedy is subjective).It cleverly highlights how downright stupid the human race is capable of being. Imo
