I recently discovered "Das Boobs", since there was a picture at the steampage of SH4. Just watched one show. Wasn't hillarious, but i will check out some more.
And a couple of years ago, i have met two guys from Manchester in an Bavarian Beergarden, who said i should watch Mrs. Browns Boy's. They were also the ones who intruduced me to Blackadder.
