Aside from my favourite BBC Radio 6 music show, Nemone’s Electric Ladyland, I have also been listening to some excellent UK-based comedy in the form of The Pin, a slightly surreal sketch show, which regularly accompanies me home from work through Newlands Forest. You’ll have to be quick if you want to get hold of the 4 episodes in the series though, they’re going to drop off iPlayer soon.
In addition, UK comedy of a more visual nature is the brilliant Channel 4 series Bad Robots. It’s on DSTV, channel 120 most weeks, but you can also find full episodes on Youtube by searching for “Bad Robots”.
Here’s their tourist information “bot” at Cardiff’s Millennium Centre. You may also like to add the additional search term “Garden centre” for some more funny clips.

Not comedy but as another fan of Nemone I’m also enjoying B.Traits http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01lsv7b and Richie Roberts for good old ‘arms in the air’ old skool vibes. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02w1m7g
The last 30 mins is especially good.
