    The Day Today (1994)

    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? Host/Editor A. J.

    Sitcoms They Never Should Have Made

    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! Host/Editor A. J.

    The Smoking Room (2004-2005)

    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.
