Cant go wrong with on the buses. Classic comedy even tho dated now.
Doesnt rely on real smutt and vulgar, done rudely but in best possible taste like the carry on films, todays comedies rely to much on vulgarity and swearing and ok if not done to ott. Humour at its best, old comedies like that steptoe and son are stuff you can never get tired of. And how comedies should be, kept simple but at times realistic .
And as for Monty python they are a world of their own, way ahead of their time that was a required and misunderstood taste in its day, and as time went by got the recognition they deserved and has become cult classic in every possible sense. And inspired a hell of a lot of todays comedians and comedy sketches, all of the monty python team are genuises in their own rights, eg john cleese in fawlty towers, enough said speaks for itself.
