Welcome back to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST!
In this episode of You Have Been Watching, hosts A. J. Black and Robert Turnbull join forces to examine of the more legendary political satires of the 90s, 1994's The Day Today.
Arguably 'sitcom adjacent' in style, this mock current affairs news programme helped launch the ships of a thousand careers, from Chris Morris to Steve Coogan to Rebecca Front and more, not to mention providing the first on-screen appearance of Alan Partridge. Has it, however, remained funny across many different ages of news?

Welcome back to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST
In this Extra Laughs episode host Robert Turnbull introduces some bonus material from our inaugural chat Rob Heath and Guy Walker, hosts of the Britcom Goes To The Movies podcast.
We spent so long getting to know Guy and Rob's comedy backgrounds that we had plenty of extra goodies to share with you, including some shameless name dropping and a clear pattern of Rob hating everything Robert has worked on...

Welcome back to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST!
In this episode of You Have Been Watching, hostsw A. J. Black and Robert Turnbull join forces to attack a topic they've looked forward to for a while - assembling six British sitcoms (or rather, shitcoms) they never should have made.
They wade through Heil Honey I'm Home!, Sam's Game, Curry and Chips, Slinger's Day, Bottle Boys and finally (cheating slightly) Come Fly With Me, examining how across 40 years of sitcoms some of these shows are allowed to be made, in what context, and without trying too hard to bury them under cultural recency bias, figure out whether they have any artistic merit all these years on...
NOTE: While no problematic language is used in this episode, we do discuss topics which might be considered triggering at some points. Exercise caution when listening. But don't blame us if you don't!

Welcome back to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST!
In this episode of You Have Been Watching, host Robert Turnbull is joined by a new addition to our sitcom family; Emma Arneil. After a little chat about Emma’s comedy history, they light up a metaphorical cigarette to chat about 2004-2005’s The Smoking Room.
With a stacked cast, including Robert Webb, Paula Wilcox and Selina Griffiths and created and written by Brain Dooley, this BAFTA winning series, set entirely in the basement smoking room of an unspecified office building, revolves around the daily events of the staff who use the smoking room to evade the drudgery of work, general life and sometimes, each other.

Welcome back to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST!
Crack open the peapod burgundy and join hosts Robert Turnbull and Alex Lynch as they head back to the suburban 70s to discuss The Good Life.
Tom Good (Richard Briars) and his wife Barbara (Felicity Kendal) give up the middle class rat race to adopt a sustainable and (almost) self sufficient lifestyle in their Surbiton home. Their eccentric new lifestyle, as well as the various chickens, pigs and goats they introduce to their garden, horrify and confuse their best friends and - highly conventional - neighbours, Margo and Jerry Leadbetter (Penelope Keith and Paul Eddington).

Welcome back to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST.
In this episode, your hosts Tony Black and Rob Turnbull discuss Bottom, the legendary violent cult comedy from 1991 to 1995 written by and starring Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson.
Following the sad lives of Hammersmith residents Richard Richard and Edward Elizabeth Hitler, Bottom depicts two lazy, unemployed, perverted middle aged men beautifully. Richie wants to get laid. Eddie wants to drink. Both end up trapped in a hyper-real, comic-book Samuel Beckett world of nihilistic nonsense. How well has the stylised world Rik & Ade created held up over the last 30 years?
Plus! Tony is joined by Paul Tanter, one of the co-authors of Talking Bottom: A Guide to the Cult Sitcom, to discuss the show, comedy and much more. We can honestly say they get deep inside Bottom and get the most out of it. Phwoaaaaar!

Welcome back to YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING: A BRITISH SITCOM PODCAST.
In this episode, your hosts Tony Black and Rob Turnbull discuss The Cockfields from writers Joe Wilkinson & David Earl, which ran from 2019 to 2021.
Starring Wilkinson, Sue Johnston and initially Diane Morgan and Bobby Ball, it concerns the titular family on the Isle of Wight and all their eccentricities during a visit to the pastoral family home. Cast changes were forced in part by COVID-19 for a second season that perhaps outdoes the first. But is this gentle comedy a quiet great that too few people have discovered?
