I mean the sort of laughter that your neighbours could literally hear you through the walls as you held your sides. Much of tv output these days is dire that would barely raise a smile let alone a laugh , for example:
a flop like me & mrs jones
outnumbered
my family
My wife and kids weekly laugh out loud feast is gogglebox and those three can be heard all over the house with their laughing at it. Ill suggest two shows that the entire series of have reduced me to a quivering wreck after fits of laughter.
The I.T Crowd ......( the works outing is a must see ) and there is not a trace of filler or padding in any of the shows regardless of series.
Extras , Gervais & Merchant penned a two series masterclass here with the Sir Ian McKellen episode being stupendously funny and another must see.
What british shows would you offer as being laugh out loud standard and please remember humour is due to taste and one mans gold is anothers garbage so some may disagree with what is posted.

regular laugh out loud moments...........particularly when Lee is teasing David about being posh..........but lots of others as well
I love the old British comedies like Bottom, Fawlty Towers, Red Dwarf, Only Fools and Horses and Game On. They still make me proper laugh out loud.
The only contemporary comedy I laugh at is Mrs Brown's Boys. Though I enjoy Extras ( I watch the repeats, even though I have the box set) I don't find it laugh-out-loud funny.
My wife and kids howl with laughter over this one. To me its either Miranda falling over or looking into the camera with a puzzled expression and I don't find it remotely funny. My wife and kids are all female and im obviously a bloke, wonder if Miranda suits a female audience more than a male one.
and House of Fools forgot that
nope, Im female and find Miranda the unfunniest most irritating woman ever!
No matter how many times I see it, the moment Basil realises he's been conned 'Hello Lord Melbury...YOU BASTARD!!!!' still has me giggling like a helpless child.
Toast of London was going to be my answer !
I just happened to find it last night on 4oD last night. Still don't know why I watched it, but a couple of bits did make me laugh out loud. Thought I'd be in a minority of one with that answer.
