Travel Sick

Travel Sick was a British hybrid comedy-travel television series that originally aired on Bravo from 2001 to 2002. It placed UK writer Grub Smith in a different region of the world in each episode. In each destination, he was asked to complete five undesirable challenges posed by the show's producers. If he failed a challenge, he was forced to perform something unpleasant called a "forfeit". The more he failed, the worse the "forfeit" at the end of the show became. The series has also aired on Comedy Central in the United States.

A Perfect State

A Perfect State was a 1997 British situation comedy starring Gwen Taylor, Richard Hope, Trevor Cooper, Emma Amos and Danny Webb. It debuted on BBC1 on Thursday 27 February 1997 and ran for seven episodes. Taylor took the leading role of Laura Fitzgerald, the Deputy Mayor of Flatby, a town on the East Coast of England. As the series begins, she is informed that because Flatby was never surveyed for the Domesday Book, it has never officially been annexed into the United Kingdom. As a result, and much to the chagrin of the Government in London, Laura rallies the townsfolk to declare Flatby an independent state. Most of the filming was carried out in Wivenhoe in Essex.

Selwyn

Bill Maynard returns as Selwyn Froggitt, known to us all as the council labourer, helpless handyman and all-round public nuisance persistently haunting the bar of the Scarsdale Working Men's Club and Institute. This time however, Selwyn's making an attempt to broaden his horizons: bubbling with his usual enthusiasm, he's uprooted himself from Scarsdale to the Paradise Valley Holiday Camp, where he has been appointed Entertainments Officer. It's a big step for Selwyn, but he can surely take it all in his stride.

"The Pride of the Third World" is the title of a series of 16 comedy programs broadcast on La 2 of Spanish Television between 1993 and 1994, starring the comedy duo Faemino and Cansado. The programs were recorded almost without cuts in the Galileo Galilei theater in Madrid, with a live audience, and each episode ran for less than thirty minutes. "The Pride of the Third World" largely cemented the duo's place in the hearts of Spanish audiences, despite it not being their first television appearance and none of their programs achieving high ratings.

Ministry of Justice

Ministry Of Justice is a satirical comedy show that takes aim at the world of crime and anti-social behaviour. In each show comedy duo Heydon Prowse and Jolyon Rubinstein, alongside a crack team of accomplices, take on a different subject - drugs, the UK's international weapons trade and big business corruption - in their unique and provocative style using hidden cameras, disguises and bold stunts to highlight the hypocrisy and lunacy in the establishment and on the streets. With the country in a perilous state, crime flooding the streets and the legal system dangerously underfunded it could just be that these two idiots are the perfect pair to serve up justice.
