In November 2014 'Always Look on the Bright side of Life' became the most requested song at funerals here in the UK, that pretty much explains English humour.

I met Terry Jones and Michael Palin in Lears, Cardiff and they signed my copy of the Life of Brian script. We had a couple of of minutes chat, they were absolutely brilliant. Terry called me a boring little Tick!! (and wrote it in the book). Five hours later on the train home I realised my face was aching, I had been smiling all afternoon. R.I.P. Terry Jones, you were a diamond.

[@jackthebassman1]

For me, when Terry Gilliam knocked over Graham Chapman’s “ashes” was one of the very funniest things I’ve ever seen, I still replay it and laugh my socks off. Incidentally that was just after my own dear dad’s cremation (he’d have laughed too!) 😊😂

John Cleese's eulogy at his funeral was great as well.

Being British and after my mum passed, I was in Calgary, Canada and saw a car, with an older man driving. On the side it said “Coffin Dodgers Taxi”. I started laughing and thought my mum would get such a kick out of that. Thought he must British and then noticed the Union Jack on the roof.

[@PeteLewisWoodwork]

I have to be honest, I do love our British sense of humour; it is just so varied and different to all other nations. It can be subtle, zany, mad, ironic, sarcastic - all of that and yet totally, typically British. We have a range of humour to satisfy all Brits, at the end of the day. For instance, since finding out that I am autistic at age 60 (now 61), my instinct is to find humour in it. In spite of all the misery it has caused throughout my life, I can now relate to it and make jokes about it. Perhaps that is what we do best - laugh at ourselves!

[@SpeccyMan]

The funniest thing of all were the numerous mistakes in the subtitles. The important thing about British humour is we will poke fun at absolutely everything and everyone, especially ourselves. We leave taking things seriously to other countries. 😁

[@HudsonsShotgun]

Yeah, the faultless driver ...

[@MartinMurray1966]

We could till the bellends decided to become the saviours of the belittled, so now, apparently taking the piss out of someone is now classed as bullying them. Bye bye comedy

The "Amanda snort" should have a "TM" next to it. When she's laughing so much the laughs overlap - and voila: the snort - I can't stop laughing either. Very infectious. And possibly dangerous, like [cue Pythonesque segue] the funniest joke in the world... kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2W5m42Bhc-rpKc&ab_channel=BobbyS

The British are responsible for many amazing scientific discoveries, engineering feats, and innovations that changed the world. It's possible the greatest of them all, is British comedy. It's probably my favorite anyway.

[@admiralbenbow5083]

Its probably the only one that anybody makes any money out of too.

[@leonidasthanatos1182]

An old favourite of mine is a sci-fi sitcom called Red Dwarf, took a couple seasons to find their footing but they really found their stride & made something special. Hell, it was popular enough that the Americans tried to make their own version & even went far enough to steal a couple of the original's actors.

[@timothyjamieson1282]

Red Dwarf was brilliant. I loved the "Reverse time planet" episode. Poor cat...

[@davidpage4005]

Another series to watch, and maybe get some idea as to where British MP's are coming from, would be Rik Mayall as Alan B'stard in "The New Statesman". Probably modelled on "Blair", but you really could take your pick from any of the others. Keep up the good work, and the laughs.!

“Would you stop talking about the war?!” “You started it” “No I did not” “Yes you did, you invaded Poland”

Little Britain really pushed it to the limit. That and Fawlty Towers or Flowery Twats was also a favourite of mine. Peter Sellers as Inspector Clouseau must rate very highly too.

[@terrywright7470]

Amanda Rae is a real breath of fresh air, if she finds something funny her laughter is infectious. Long may she entertain us, and the best part of her videos is that she does not hit the "Pause" button every minute or two, in order to give a commentary. Well done young lady.

[@AlanJones-kc4us]

My favourite stand-up comedian is Al Murray, and his persona 'The Pub Landlord'. How he interrogates a number of his audience, and puts them in his show is absolutely brilliant...and when he goes in historical mode, he's in his element... I would also watch the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the London Olympics from 2012. The Opening was full of a brief history lesson, whilst the Closing was full of British music, but Eric Idle did a rendition of 'Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life', which was absolutely bonkers.

Greetings from Orange County, California. First run for about 10 years in the 70s, in reruns in the 80s I used to like to watch Are You Being Served. And while I get really also liked Rowan Atkins, Mr. Bean didn't do all that much for me. But yeah, more contemporary, I love Ricky Gervais.
