Damn me and my infernal polls LOL! Well. Series 1 is what kicked started it all. Series 2 was darker and more involved. Series 3 was brilliantly written and pieced together. The Xmas Special was fantastic on it's own. How can I choose?

Damn you and your infernal polls INDEED! FWIW, I voted series 3. It's the one I watch the most, I love that it doesn't have a laugh track, the writing is really strong, the music is sublime, and I love the way it all comes together at the end.

I love them all - but series one has a special place in my heart, or something less cheesey. It was the first series I saw, and in my opinion it's the funniest. Although it lacks some of the classic characters to follow, such as Terry and Anne, Papa etc, I always think that characters such as Tubbs and Edward and Pauline have funnier stories in this series.
However, the other series all have something different to them that makes them stand alone in their greatness. Damn you and your infernal polls!

Damn me and my infernal polls I like the fact that series 3 doesn't have a laughter track as well, and the way the stories all come together in the end is very clever... It's the first one I saw in full as well, actually. Series 2 is probably the one I've seen the least. And Series 1 is probably the one I've seen the most... I really can't make my mind up about which one to choose though, LOL!

Just to be different I have gone for the Xmas Special. I have only seen it once (quite recently) but I was blown away by the shear (oh, a Freudian slip for Shear-smith maybe?) joy I felt while it was on!
All of the other serieseseses are amazing too, especailly 3 for reasons already mentioned, but to me there's nothing like a Christmas story, especially a dark one, and it had Edmund Chinnery, Matthew Parker and lots of Bernice to make me very happy indeed!
Bring on Series 4?!?!

Quite an interesting mix we have here...
A 4th series? Hmm... what could happen in that, I wonder...

Maybe some more of the smaller periphery characters like Tish starting a market stall in Camden, or Ally and Henry filming their own horror movie? ;D

I have a real idea forming aboutthe Ally/Henry film thing now. Bit like Saving Private Ryan but with supplies from Hilary Briss!

"and definitely not thet bradley pitts!"
again, i can't choose. series one started the whole thing, so in a way that should be it cos otherwise we wouldn't have all the other lovely loveliness.....and tis hysterically funny. and many classic characters.... but then series two is much darker and that is good....and more classic characteres...papa, cc smith etc. it gets much more invovled and really draws you in.... and then series three is the darkest yet which is really really good [/henryandally] and it is 'like a play!' and i like the no laughter track because that annoys me. and the way it all comes together and the writing is sooooo clever and it is wonderful and brilliant and marvellous (the league are going to get swept away in this gushing) and then the christmas special is just so clever and it makes you laugh even when yu know you shouldn't, and there is lots of stella which is lways a good thing. so now i can't choose. again.
Damn you and your Infernal Polls!

I'm surprised that option isn't winning
