THIS WEEK: COMEDIES
Toast of London Genre: Sitcom Seasons: 3 Episodes: 19 Runs: 22-24min
Matt Berry is wonderful as self-important, bombastic actor Steven Toast – as is Doon Mackichan as his useless agent Jane Plough, pronounced ‘Pluff’.
Mortimer & Whitehouse: Gone Fishing Genre: Real-life humour Season: 1
Episodes: 6 Runs: 29min
Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse’s tour of the country’s best fishing spots is full of comic moments as their natural humour shines through.
Hold the Sunset Genre: Sitcom Season: 1 Episodes: 7 Runs: 26-30min
There is much pleasure in seeing comedy greats John Cleese and Alison Steadman work their magic in a series that divided opinion in this office.
Da Kath & Kim Code

When you’ve finished binge-watching all four seasons of the Aussie comedy, this TV movie is the next stop. Barry Humphries and Michael Bublé guest star.
