This comedy series, which follows the exploits of employees at London's fictional "Grace Brothers" department store, is full of sexual innuendo, slapstick, visual gags, and double entendres. Much of the show's humor parodies Britain's class system, and many of the show's characters are based on stereotypes of the period, including the effeminate Mr. Humphries and the rich, but stingy, store owner.

Hi-de-Hi! is a British sitcom set in Maplins, a fictional holiday camp, during 1959 and 1960, and was written by Jimmy Perry and David Croft, who also wrote Dad's Army and It Ain't Half Hot Mum amongst others. It aired on the BBC from 1980 to 1988. The series revolved around the lives of the camp's management and entertainers, most of them struggling actors or has-beens. The inspiration was the experience of writers Perry and Croft: after being demobilised from the army, Perry was a Redcoat at Butlin's, Pwllheli during the holiday season. The series gained large audiences and won a BAFTA as Best Comedy Series in 1984. In 2004, it came 40th in Britain's Best Sitcom and in a 2008 poll on Channel 4, 'Hi-de-Hi!" was voted the 35th most popular comedy catchphrase.

You Rang, M'Lord? is a British comedy series written by Jimmy Perry and David Croft, the creators of Dad's Army, It Ain't Half Hot Mum and Hi-de-Hi! It was broadcast between 1990 and 1993 on the BBC. The show was a comedy set in the house of an aristocratic family in the 1920s, contrasting the upper-class family and their servants in a house in London, along the same lines as the popular drama Upstairs, Downstairs. The series featured many actors who had also appeared in their earlier series, notably Paul Shane, Jeffrey Holland and Su Pollard, all of whom had previously been in Perry and Croft's holiday camp sitcom, Hi-de-Hi!. Also featured were Donald Hewlett and Michael Knowles from Perry and Croft's It Ain't Half Hot Mum, and Bill Pertwee and occasionally Frank Williams from Dad's Army. The memorable 1920s-style theme tune was sung by Bob Monkhouse.

La BBC Television Shakespeare est une série d'adaptations télévisées britanniques des pièces de théâtre de William Shakespeare. Elle a été créée par Cedric Messina et produite par la BBC Television. Elle a été diffusée au Royaume-Uni du 3 décembre 1978 au 27 avril 1985 et s'est étendue sur sept saisons. Le développement de la série a commencé en 1975 lorsque Messina a remarqué que le château de Glamis serait un lieu parfait pour une adaptation de la pièce de Shakespeare "Comme il vous plaira". De retour à Londres, il a imaginé une série entière consacrée exclusivement aux œuvres dramatiques de Shakespeare. Après avoir rencontré de nombreux problèmes pour produire la série, Messina a finalement présenté l'idée aux responsables de la BBC et la série a été approuvée. Dans l'ensemble, la série a reçu des critiques généralement négatives de la part des critiques.
