The IT Crowd, All4
It never ceases to amaze me to discover that there are people who haven't seen this cracking sitcom with a terrific cast that includes Chris O'Dowd, Richard Ayoade, Katherine Parkinson and Matt Berry.
Written by Father Ted co-creator Graham Linehan, it's fun from the off when new recruit Jen (Parkinson) is appointed head of the IT department, but her staff Moss (Ayoade) and Roy (O'Dowd) soon discover that she knows nothing about computers.
The show lasted four seasons with six episodes each and ran from 2006 to 2010. While it never gained the huge success enjoyed by Father Ted, it's still a very funny piece of work.

Today's Guilty Pleasure
Pharmacy Road, 10.00pm, Sky Atlantic
Boasting a pretty awesome cast including Andy Samberg, John Cena, Kevin Bacon, Orlando Bloom, Jeff Goldblum and (judging by the stills) Freddie Highmore, this one-off HBO comedy should be fun.
Written by Murray Miller (Girls), its about the Tour de France during "a dark and fictitious time in cycling history", which is pretty vague when you think about it.
In 1982, the sport’s most venerable, time-honoured race was marred by the doping of virtually all of its competitors. Riddled with nefarious characters, that year’s competition was a hornet’s nest of moral depravity.
Through the perspective of five riders, Pharmacy Road offers a – presumably fictitious - inside look into the grim realities of the darkest event in a sport notoriously tainted by controversy.
