Alfresco

Think of Alfresco, an’80s U.K. sketch show, as Before They Were Stars: The British Edition. Laurie, Thompson, Stephen Fry, and Harry Potter‘s Robbie Coltrane yuk it up in hilarious skits chocka-block with wordplay, absurdism, and downright mockery. Targets include the U.K. health-care system, punks, lager louts, parole officers, and pyromaniacs. B+
