Borat is clever and funny. In my top three along with this is Spinal Tap and Annie Hall. Haven't seen the top two but will see what the fuss is about.

Come on boys borat played the yanks brilliantly,
modern British hummer, The yanks just don't get the bigger twist and irony in the English language .

one advantage of being old and decrepit is watching a film in the morning, at the moment I am watching a forgotten comedy The Mouse On The Moon with a cast full of British stars of old.

The Carry On series and Doctor in the House etc all deserve an honourable mention. When I was eight I liked Norman Wisdom and Mr Pastry but I think I've grown out of them now.

Had forgotten about the Plank - brilliantly funny (or at least I thought so in the ? 60's)

For me it's a toss up between Al Gores "An inconvenient truth" and "The day after tomorrow".
How I laughed when those scientists were overwhelmed and perished by the storm or instant freeze I can't quite remember the method of dispatch.
When those skyscrapers were enveloped in instantfreeze I felt like shouting out "You should have put an extra sock in the tumble drier you foots".
Didn't work, they still ended up as freeze dried human fingers.

a great one on tonight 9 pm on film 4 called "four lions" about 4 jihadists in the north of england.
if you thought a comedy about terrorism was not possible i would urge you to watch, like a "carry on the haj".
