The broadcaster recently renewed the agreement for six more series following nine record-breaking series on UKTV's Dave.   Taskmaster has triumphed as one of Channel 4's most popular programs in recent years, coming in as the channel's third most streamed title of 2023 with 2.3 billion viewing minutes recorded across all series watched in the year.

In this episode, we delve into the quintessential British sitcom Keeping Up Appearances, created and written by Roy Clarke. Airing on BBC1 from 1990 to 1995, this beloved show captivated audiences with its witty portrayal of suburban snobbery and eccentricity. We explore the origins of the series, the inspirations behind its characters, and its impact on British comedy. From Hyacinth Bucket's infamous pronunciation of her surname as "Bouquet" to the hilarious antics of her dysfunctional family, we examine what made this show a timeless classic. Hyacinth Bucket, brilliantly portrayed by Dame Patricia Routledge, is the heart of the series. Her relentless pursuit of social status and her comically disastrous attempts to impress her neighbors form the core of the show's humor. We discuss Routledge's illustrious career and how she brought Hyacinth to life, making her one of the most memorable characters in British television history. We also touch upon the other key characters, including Hyacinth's long-suffering husband Richard, her sisters Daisy and Rose, and their quirky father. The show's success wasn't limited to the UK. Keeping Up Appearances found a dedicated fan base in the US, Canada, Australia, and several European countries. We explore its international appeal and how it became BBC Worldwide's most exported television program by 2016. Through interviews with cast members, fans, and television critics, we gain insight into why this show resonated with viewers across the globe and how it continues to be beloved by audiences today. We also examine some of the show's most iconic episodes and moments. From Hyacinth's disastrous candlelight suppers to her encounters with the nervous postman and the bemused vicar, we relive the scenes that had audiences in stitches.  With its sharp writing, memorable characters, and timeless humor, Keeping Up Appearances remains a shining example of British sitcom excellence. Join us as we celebrate this iconic series and its enduring charm. Talk2TheHand is an independent throwback podcast run by husband and wife, Jimmy and Beth.

Ryan felt we needed to lighten things up and dive back into some digestible fluff that he could get into his snarling teeth. But kinda what we found was that he's been tamed slightly. No longer has the pretentiousness of cinema's past enveloped his dark soul now that he's found the work of Nick Hurran. Yes. Nick. Oh, sweet Nick. This man knows what he's doing with this (one of his many "body swap" films in his filmography). This happens to be one of the better examples. Now, it's no BIG. It's no FREAKY FRIDAY. It's VIRTUAL SEXUALITY: the spunky British comedy with plenty of that late 90's style and lack of taste that the early 00's also brought. But hey, it's nostalgia. You kinda had to be there. (Also, Ryan remains unchanged.)

Her online sketches about being bicultural and the radical differences between the British and French have garnered her 50 million views and nearly 500,000 followers on social media. Tatty Macleod's videos tackle the idiosyncrasies surrounding booty calls, Parisian chicness, French waiters and British binge drinking. She's performed across Europe and is a regular at some of the biggest clubs in the UK, including the Comedy Store and the Glee Clubs. Tatty Macleod launched her debut show "Fugue" at last year's Edinburgh Fringe to sold-out audiences and is still touring with it. She speaks to Eve Jackson about some of the fundamental differences between France – where she was brought up by her English mum – and Britain, where she lives now.

Hello there!  Fun times over here at the Superlatively Yes Podcast.  Tanya opens with her (accidental) announcement of Shawn's death on Insta, which prompted many questions and much sadness.  In reality, Shawn has a staycation and Tanya puts him to work.  I'm here alone in Tennessee and needing company to watch the Golden Bachelor, but Shepherd arrives just in time bearing cheesecake and helps me process the rose ceremony while Tanya and Josh are contributing their own thoughts via texting.  It all makes us laugh.  Lots of things make us laugh because we're here for it.  Thankful that you're here for it, too.  Thank you for being a listener and a friend.  Take care, Jasa   Superlatively Yes website   Superlatively Yes on Patreon   Superlatively Yes Instagram Page Superlatively Yes Facebook Page   Jasa's Instagram Jasa's Facebook   Tanya's Instagram   Cute and Fun: @nodairynocry on insta   Nebulizer 12% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide Oil of Oregano   Hollywood Bluetooth Vanity Mirror with Lights RedHead Ranch Niobrara River Blanket Long-Sleeve Shirt Ariat Rebar Men's Hoodie The Pray App Any Shiny Black Puffer Vest: Black Puffer Vest from Vici Black Puffer Vest from H&M Vegan Black Puffer Vest from Gap Redken Hair Cleansing Cream Clarifying Shampoo Wrangler Vest from Wal-Mart
