Mine is when Homer Simpson goes to the post office pretending to be Mr. Burns.

Homer: Good day, my name is Mr. Burns, I believe you have a letter for me?
Post office clerk: Okay Mr. Burns, what's your first name?
Homer: I don't know.

And equally favourite is whatever movie it is in which Steve Martin says, "Pointy bird, oh pointy pointy..."

Top of my head, the bar-counter-top pratfall in Only Fools and Horses.

Which I at the top of my head because I was thinking about how it's the clear choice of best moment from OFaH, with the chandelier scene a distant second, which I was thinking about because I was remembering that cockfarming best 100 moments on telly program, one of the first of its sort with cockfarming Paul Morley, which I was thinking about because when they contacted Michael Parkinson and said "you've been selected for one of the top ten moments on telly" he said "It's that fucking bird isn't it?" because, yes Michael, people are less interested in seeing you conducting an interesting interview with Anwar Sadat than with seeing Rod Hull apologising for the fact that his left hand is attacking you repeatedly, which I was thinking about because Starry might be coming over to Dublin and bringing Spacestation Pongo, though now I'm thinking if she does, she'll probably keep him at home for the reasons mentioned above DO YOU SEE???

i hate michael parkinson. i don't know why.

i think Basil Fawly beating up his car is probs my fave, but it might be a bit longer than 10 seconds, in which case i'd go for the scene where he manages to grope the australian bird's tit

― Alan (Alan), Thursday, 19 September 2002 09:36 (twenty-three years ago)

Any ten seconds from Jeremy Paxman interviewing Michael Howard.

Koogs, that little moment was one of the proudest products of my school.

― Tim (Tim), Thursday, 19 September 2002 10:31 (twenty-three years ago)

Surely no-one still laughs at DelBoy falling through the bar (they always the cut the clip before Trigger's reaction anyway), or Basil F beating up his car or the bloody chandelier (ok, Grandad's "brace yourself, Rodney" is still kinda bittersweet). Long before the advent of Best 1000 Hats in a Tragicomic One-Off Drama type thing, these clips were played to death. They kinda detract from the richness of Fawlty Towers and early OFaH.

My fave 10 seconds of television is so traumatic to certain other ILE posters, I'm not sure I should go into detail. It features the phrase "it's up for grabs now". In second place: all the dead people dancing in heaven in Armando Iannucci's C4 show last year (I keep saying this; eventually it'll be repeated and it won't seem as good).

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Thursday, 19 September 2002 10:35 (twenty-three years ago)

Oh hang on - is it DelBoy who says "brace yourself"? I prefer to remember it as Grandad.

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Thursday, 19 September 2002 10:36 (twenty-three years ago)

A couple of mine

From The Mary Whitehouse Experience - the tennis bit after David Baddeil (wow, I can't spell that at all) is talking about the mad homeless person

The longest I have laughed was at Jack Dee saying "There was a sign that said 'please do not throw coins into the pond'" and looking pissed of for several seconds (it was in the delivery).

And I'm sure there are about 50 Brass Eye moments

Most likely to make me cry is Buffy's "we aren't supposed to move the body"

― Sofa King Alternative (Sofa King Alternative), Thursday, 19 September 2002 11:24 (twenty-three years ago)

If we're declaring Basil Fawlty taking the tree trunk to the car ineligable, I think I really must go for someone interviewing Jeffrey Archer. I paraphrase:

'Oh, yes, the BBC. You're very fair. "What do you think of Jeffrey Archer, Mr Crick?" Clip, clip clip. Just you wait until I'm Mayor of London. Then you'll see!'

I think I could stand seeing this moment on my box every day for the rest of my life. Certainly a substantial portion of same.

Recently it has been any given skit on Trigger Happy TV. (The car being attacked by gorillas at the safari park comes to mind, as does the one millionth customer of the porn shop.)

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 19 September 2002 12:27 (twenty-three years ago)

Recent fave...Seinfeld series 3 - the stranded. Elaine bored at a party and some woman is asking where are fiance is (she pronounces fiance with major stress on the '..ce'), "I've lost my fiance, the poor baby"

Elaine looks at her and in an Australian accent says "Maybe the dingo ate your baby"

I just about passed out from laughing so hard, totally lost it.

hahaaaa graham mentioning craig mclachlan reminds me of when he was trying to teach Harold's son (??) in neighbours how to be "cool", and he sang (the son) "sorry i'm late, i didn't mean to be rude, but it was worth the wait, cos i'm a real cool dud!" hahaa.

Brass Eye, paedophile episode, "this man has disguised himself as a school", but any of it really, I never laugh at funny things, I just think "oh that's funny" but I did actually laugh at this.

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 19 September 2002 13:52 (twenty-three years ago)

Nicole, how can you not find Trigger Happy TV funny? The whole thing with the tourist getting his picture taken while the Grim Reaper sneaked into the photo behind him = CLASSIC, as was the Vain Gorillagram.

Trigger Happy TV = Brass Eye for people who missed the point. See also Ali G.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Thursday, 19 September 2002 14:11 (twenty-three years ago)

"Trigger Happy TV = Brass Eye for people who missed the point. See also Ali G."

As OTM as it is possible to be, Andrew.

The best ten seconds of TV I've seen has got to be Morris: David Amess' reaction to the Cake-user's "music" played to him in the Drugs Brass Eye. Nearly laughed myself sick on first viewing.

― Venga, Thursday, 19 September 2002 16:10 (twenty-three years ago)

A) I've never seen Brass Eye.
B) Everything I've heard about it makes me think it's probably the greatest thing ever.
C) Chris Morris' comedy album is unbelievably funny.

Your presumption makes you foolish, grasshopper.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 19 September 2002 16:38 (twenty-three years ago)

Just ignore them Dan. They're just trying to be smartasses. You enjoy your crazy pranks.

― N. (nickdastoor), Thursday, 19 September 2002 16:42 (twenty-three years ago)

Well, speaking for myself but I wasn't referring to peeps like you specifically Dan. If I hadn't seen Brass Eye, I'd most probably think THTV was as good as you think it is.

― Venga, Thursday, 19 September 2002 16:52 (twenty-three years ago)

the opening titles to Enterprise (of course)

― jel -- (jel), Thursday, 19 September 2002 16:54 (twenty-three years ago)

B-but what has Brass Eye got to do with THTV? Only similarity is that the star poses as people he is not. This tool can be used for various ends. Media satire, in the case of Brass Eye, or comi-tragic knockabout, in the case of THTV. I don't know why people feel the need to patronise those who enjoy the latter. At it's best, there was something very poignant about THTV. Esp. the scenes where he just walked off and some crappy indie torchsong was playing over the top.

As of now I'm going to say the appearance of the "Rappin' Space Goblin" on "Space Ghost Coast to Coast" (and guest Chuck D's reaction). A close second is Mr. Show's David Cross as actor Borden Grote (who took method acting so seriously he was lobotomized for a role as a mental patient) spastically running out of his mansion in a diaper yelling "HAHNTHAHNTHAHNT!"

So what is this Trigger Happy deal anyway?

Two fave moments offhand:

MST3K: Santa Claus Conquers the Martians: (partially due to rapid fire delivery)

"What small and round...and you toast it on a stick?"

"An elf?"

"And it's green."

"Oh. A DEAD elf!"
