Phil's Top 14 Comedy Series - Part Ten

5. Allo Allo

One of the longest running sitcoms ever for sheer number of episodes - almost one hundred - this told the comedic, almost serial-like, story of the French resistance's battle against the Nazis, with catchphrases and jokes galore, and use of accents to great effect.

Who cannot forget Officer Crabtree with his mangled French ("I was just pissing by the door") or L'Clerec with his dicky ticker?

Delightfully politically uncorrect and stupid, this was an excellent on going story on the quest for the Fallen Madonna with the Big Boobies that survived cast changes to create a great series, even if it sometimes flagged mid-series.
