Favourite comedy shite?

[burraston2006]

In the loosest sense of the word.

 

It was made at roughly the same time as The Young Ones and was the sort of "established" comedy that the Young Ones railled against.

O.K.! So not funny then!!

O.K.! So not funny then!!

 

If you find The Young Ones funny then you may "struggle" with The Gaffer. To put it delicately I think it's a generational thing.

[burraston2006]

Should it be called The Giffer then?!

[plasticvandan]

The original version of the plank is probably in my top 5 films.

 

Here's a Reliant Regal used for comedic effect long before the BBC thought if it.

[danthecapriman]

True - but put it next to a current Mundano...

 

Those Lincoln's are essentially the same as my Mercury. My Dad has a 60 reg Mondeo estate and the Mercury still dwarfs the Mondeo! They are big!

Ronin: Two 605's & an XM versus an Audi A8 plus an old Merc (W123-style). Also the wrong-way chase up the autoroute, between the 406 & the Beemer, there's alot of shite there from standard PSA fare to an old Rangie. Or some of the stuff in the original 'Taxi' film (the original French film, not the shit Hollywood remake).

 

 

Loved Bill Maynard's shite in The Gaffer. Also loved the start where one of his lot would question his choice of car and he'd always have a comeback:

 

Ere Gaffer, when are you gonna get a new car?

 

Don't be daft, I haven't finished paying for the one I had before the one I traded in for this one.

...plus an old Merc...

 

Only a W116 450SEL 6.9!!

The Simpsons Canyonero.

 

 

Can ya name the truck with four wheel drive,
Smells like a steak and seats thirty five.
Canyonero...
Canyonero...

When it goes real slow with the hammer down,
Its the country fried truck endorsed by a clown.
Canyonero...
Canyonero...

Twelve yards long two lanes wide,
Sixty five tons of American pride.
Canyonero...
Canyonero...

Top of the line in utility sports,
Unexplained fires are a matter for the courts.
Canyonero...
Canyonero...

She blinds everybody with her super high beems,
She's a squirrel squishin' deer smackin' drivin' machine.
Canyonero...
Canyonero...
Yahh...yahh canyonero
Whoa Canyonero.

Alan Partridges dark maroon Granada - "difficult to keep clean, appearances count in my business". Which he lost to a Texan gambler, along with his wife, Carols, Micra ("crappy little Jap car")

 

Followed by several Rovers - Lynn managed to negotiate a leather gear knob for the 200 - result!

 

In order to save Peartree productions it was suggested he traded down to a Metro "I'm not driving a mini-Metro, I'm not driving a mini-Metro, I'm not driving a mini-Metro".

 

Cock-Piss Partridge adorning his Rover.

 

And once his career took off again, on cable TV, he got a Lexus "whats the plural of Lexus? Lexi? Lexusus?".

[NorfolkNWeigh]

Alan Partridge has got a sign written Kia Optima these days

 

 

I think the clever thing with Coogan's car casting is that they're not obvious or over the top,just very well observed.

Lexus must have cried when Partridge got an IS200 as he was the epitome of the type of men ( almost exclusively) that bought them. " Its the Japanese Mercedes"

[Vince70]

I've just been watching some old comic strip presents and there's some real good old shite in Gino...

 

And how about the Bad News tour bus..

For some reason all my pictures come upside down..

Alan Partridge when asked if the owner of the beige Toyota could please move it.... "it isn't a beige Toyota actually, it is a Gold Lexus"

 

Or something along those lines. Remember that it made me chuckle.
