In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

Love it. Liked quite a few later episodes individually as well but the BTE trilogy I will always hate.
Red Dwarf is such a classic, watched them all so many times, up to S8 anyway.
The really early ones are my favourites, there was so much going on in them, so funny, so poignant and so clever. Much more than what it appeared to be on the surface.
All so good but If I had to choose one particular episode, which is a very difficult choice, it would have to be body swap or Thanks for the memory or something.
Stress Relief is incredible. Dwight's fire drill, the bit with the CPR dummy and the scene at corporate with Dwight and Michael are three of the best scenes in the whole show, all in the same episode.
I think almost any Father Ted episode would be up there but this one in particular
Also Queeg - there are so many
Archer: Skytanic
Seinfeld: The Opposite
Seinfeld: The Opposite
This one, and the James Bond episode are my standouts.
The Office - Training day. Gareth’s ultimate fantasy and Brent’s guitar.
I've always loved the quarantine one, where Rimmer ends up dressed like a little girl with the puppet.
Mr Flibble!,
My favourite is episode one The End, I catch myself singing "To Ganymede and Titan, yes sir I've been around..." too often.
Yes, delivered as situational comedy. Unlike, say, Private Eye which is also political satire.
I mean, "Yes, Minister" is a sitcom surely?
Fecks sake, you’ve got me singing that now
So many good episodes , Backwards and Tikka to Ride are brilliant.
Not been mentioned yet. People who do nothing, anything Chabuddy does cracks me up. I use the term ‘tech head’ on a daily basis now for anyone who pisses me off. Can’t wait for the movie.
Fawlty Towers - The Germans
It would be something from Father Ted, too many good ones to choose from.
What We Do In The Shadows had some hilarious ones. Werewolf Fued, The Trial and Baron's Night Out were all classics.

Absolutely. Add to this the episodes in which Niles and Frasier open a restaurant and Flour Child.
Also Dungeons & Dragons - Community.
The rabbits episode of Father Ted and the episode of the Thick of It when they have a lockdown because there's speculation that Nicola is launching a leadership bid.
Good call , the major talking to the moose head
Krazee Eyez Killah had me the first time I watched it.... like at 3AM too, which didn't go down well at the time.
The restaurant one is brilliant. All episodes with Niles and Frasier hosting a party are great, really.
The WoW one from South Park is pretty funny
Some cracking episodes of shows have been mentioned. Instead of repeating what's already been said, I'll nominate a couple of classics:
Dads Army, when they have to guard the captured Germans. They end up taking their order for fish and chips, which always cracks me up.
Steptoe and Son. They have a falling out and divide up the house, connected by a turnstile that you have to put a coin in. A fire breaks out and the fire brigade don't have change for the turnstile.

The bat dad episode from south park.
That was good but Mystery of the Urinal Deuce was better.
Tweek x Craig is probably the funniest one.
I’ve not seen that one, I don’t think I’ve seen many (or even any) after season 14.
It’s not their best or smartest, but I loved the world war z spoof in South Park, where they replaced the zombies with Cartman’s delusional fear of Black Lives Matter protests.
Casa Bonita is still my favourite South Park episode.
This.
The scene where Jez eats barbecued dog leg is a close second for me.
Love community but that wasn't a funny episode?
